In depth
Verdict
With the stalls on the far side high numbers may have a slight advantage. The filly Groovy Willow is open to improvement, but she face some battle hardened rivals here. Barrantes comes into this in good form and unlike the majority of these he is fairly straightforward. He goes well for an apprentice and is taken to score. Mungo Park in more than capable, but he needs producing as late as possible and Ryan Moore will need to be at his best if he is to get him to put his head in front.
