I have just seen the barrier draw and Real Saga (13) and More Joyous (12) have drawn wide. This will not affect Real Saga too much and as long as Oliver doesn't get too far back and make the same mistake as he did in the Blue Diamond. I believe only bad luck will beat him.
Reward For Effort (3) and Manhattan Rain (5) have drawn well and must come into serious consideration. I am still yet to be convinced about Rostova (9) after her failure in the Diamond and I don't like the Sires Produce form.
Phelan Ready (18) and Marquardt (16) were my two roughies but they might struggle a bit from out there.
