Will sixties and sir Percy like the ground, though? If they do, they will probably fight out the finish but i'm not so sure.

I think Septimus will be the value each way alternative.

Neither has run much on genuinely soft ground but I reckon they'll handle it.. Septimus certainly looks the ew pick.. Do you think the ground will be Soft on Friday??

Well, they have just changed it officially from good to soft to soft after more rain again today.

It's a shame, because i'd prefer to see classics run on ground on the fast side of good as that is what good horses are bred to be best on these days, when really good races are run on soft ground it takes the shine of it, if you know what i mean.

Definitley looks like it will be called "soft" on Friday, though

The 11th time is the charm.....

MARAAHEL!

ive backed Septimus but the ground isnt as soft as I first thought and both him and Sixties have many lengths to make up on Sir Percy over course and distance.... This will be a cracking race.

Funny, because i think the ground is getting slower after each race after it gets opened up. The times have been getting gradually slower.

He is one of the only relaxed ones in this field, another good sign.

He's my best bet of the day

I NEVER get Scorpion right.......... ever!

By the way the race was run...... was Septimus a pacemaker for the winner? Johnny kept looking behind really early to see where he was.
