DECLARED RUNNERS 10 2019: JUDICIAL (IRE) 7 9 2 Joe Fanning 13-2 (Julie Camacho) 10 ran Blinkers worn first time by No. 4. Tongue Strap worn by No. 2. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No. 1, 9. Probable S.P’s: 4-1 Keep Busy (IRE), 11-2 Tarboosh, 13-2 Major Jumbo, 7-1 Makanah, 17-2 Dakota Gold, 10-1 Alpha Delphini, 11-1 Queens Gift (IRE), 12-1 Last Empire, 22-1 Caspian Prince (IRE), 50-1 Fool For You (IRE)

PLAY SMARTER KEEP BUSY is a likeable sort who is going the right way and has a better draw than most, so she’s preferred to Tarboosh who, like the selection, arrives on the back of an excellent effort in a York handicap. Plenty of others have something to recommend them, notably Dakota Gold following his return to form at Ripon.
