Ivan Grozny (1/1), Clondaw Warrior (9/2), Kitten Rock (5/1), Rashaan (5/1), Plinth (16/1), Moonday Sun (16/1), Minella Foru (33/1), Thomas Edison (50/1)
An interesting event. The likes of Thomas Edison and Kitten Rock would hold chances here on the best of their form, but it's tricky to know what both are capable of at present, and preference is for the proven ability of CLONDAW WARRIOR, far from disgraced at Belmont Park on his latest start and holds a class advantage over most of these. Ivan Grozny will be ready to defend his crown and gives the Willie Mullins camp a strong hand. Rashaan should go well and Moonday Sun could go better than his likely big price may suggest.
