We said3rd of 11, beaten 2 at 7/2F
ROYAL DUKE 13/2
ROYAL DUKE at 13/2, R Mike Smith with Cian Horgan taking off 5lb, is the one I want to be on here. He races off a mark 8lb below the 57 it won from back in August 2025 and has won here twice.
The one worry is run style against this track.
The dangers are SIXCOR at 10/1 (a course winner) and SKI ANGEL at 11/2 (a course winner).
