Verdict

Bourbon in May was a disappointing favourite in the race won by Donji here at the start of the month and that wasn’t the first time this year that Bobby Dibona’s colt had let down backers. Donji is now on a hat-trick but Twenty Four Seven looks a danger as Luis Saez probably got his tactics wrong when Saffie Joseph’s gelding was only third behind Farley last time. Placed three times since completing a track double around the turn of the year, MY POINT EXACTLY looks to have a good chance of picking up the winning thread again.
