Sunday, 1 July 2012: After the excitement of Derby Day there are some good follow-ups on Sunday's card.
The first of the Group races is the G3 Grangecon for 2yo over 1200m, with 8 runners. True Verdict is odds on at 4/5 but the going is a test for most of these babies and if you want to oppose try Slope on 8/1 or Boston Rocket 10/1.
The Friarstown International is G3 over 2000m and Dermot Weld's Famous Name is 4/6. Native Khan is having his first outing for some time and 11/8 looks skinny in these circumstances and we prefer to go very wide and add Bob Le Beau, 25/1.
The Pretty Polly is for the 3yo fillies over 2000m and is headed by the Epsom Oaks winner Was at 2/1. Maybe didn't run at Ascot and comes into this on 3/1, with Izzi Top also on that quote, and our preference.
Then there's the Curragh Cup G3 where Fame And Glory should rule with Mount Athos and Midnight Soprano the attendants.
An Irish Ascot?
