Forecasts

Saxon Warrior (5/6), Delano Roosevelt (3/1), Kew Gardens (4/1), Warm The Voice (12/1), Riyazan (14/1)

Trainer Aiden O'Brien has won this race 16 times in the last 21 renewals and has Saxon Warrior who is likely to be a warm order here. The trainers other two runners are not out of it given their performances in the Group 3 Champions Juvenile stakes at Leopardstown behind a smart stable-mate in Nelson. Preference is for the third in that race DELANO ROOSEVELT who will come on for for his last start.
