DECLARED RUNNERS 15 2020:MEETING ABANDONED
Hood worn by No. 7. Stewards Note: DEVILWALA: Following its run on 15/4/2021 it was reported that the horse lost a shoe. Probable S.P’s: 9-2 Wembley (IRE), 11-2 Thunder Moon (IRE), 7-1 Mutasaabeq (GB), 8-1 Master of The Seas (IRE), 9-1 Battleground (USA), One Ruler (IRE), 12-1 Chindit (IRE), 16-1 Poetic Flare (IRE), Van Gogh (USA), 25-1 Lucky Vega (IRE), 50-1 Legion of Honour (GB), Naval Crown (GB), 300-1 Devilwala (IRE), Mystery Smiles (IRE), 500-1 Albadri (IRE)
PLAY SMARTER This looks a particularly open renewal. THUNDER MOON was behind Wembley in the Dewhurst but had been very impressive when beating him in the National Stakes prior to that and is taken to provide his trainer with a second successive British Classic win after Galileo Chrome’s Leger triumph last autumn. Battleground and Godolphin-pair Master of The Seas and One Ruler are others likely to have a say.
