Not a bet. The horse we made most likely: Damysus (9/4)
Won by: Item (GB) at 3/1 · then Pride Of Arras (IRE)

We passed. Likely winner: Rajapour (9/2)
Won by: Dwindling Funds (GB) at 5/1 · then Final Night (GB), Barley (IRE)

Won by: Rogue Jewel (IRE) at 11/1 · then Gladys Pugh (IRE)

Won by: Likealot (GB) at 100/30F · then Tycoon (GB), Wahdan (IRE)
What we said: top-rated on figures, proven at today's trip/going, sire suits fast ground, and is favourite for good reason in a race lacking a standout alternative

Not a bet. The horse we made most likely: Return Of The Gods (10/3)
Won by: Flight Control (IRE) at 7/2 · then Mr Noble (IRE), Toastmaster (IRE)
