Forecasts

Pinatubo (1/3), Armory (10/3), Arizona (5/1), Geometrical (16/1), Roman Turbo (16/1), Iberia (20/1), Monoski (50/1), Toronto (50/1)

Verdict

Armory is the Aidan O'Brien number one on paper, but it could well be that Arizona is ignored as a result, and he would have solid place claims on the form of his Coventry Stakes win. That may all be moot if PINATUBO shows up in the same form he was at Goodwood, however, and on his Vintage Stakes romp he is head and shoulders above his contemporaries.
  1. Pinatubo
  2. Arizona
  3. Armory
