Forecasts
Declarationofpeace (11/8), Goodthingstaketime (9/4), Treasuring (3/1), Emadee (4/1), Sirici (9/2), True Blue Moon (6/1), Wolfofbaggotstreet (10/1), Raramauri (11/1)
Declarationofpeace is the starting point, and looks likely to go off a short price. He's clearly well regarded at Ballydoyle and looked impressive when thumping Treasuring on the AW in May. Something was clearly a miss at Royal Ascot, but he was again well held over 6f in the Phoenix Stakes since. He drops in class here and the blinkers might sharpen him up, but taking a short price looks risky enough. The aforementioned Treasuring has come forward since that setback and should be competitive while True Blue Moon is set to improve again. There's no telling how good Emadee may be but she overcame a troubled run to score on debut but SIRICI has been a consistent performer this season and having won a Listed Tipperary race last time, fully merits a tilt at this prize with the potential for better to come.
