Power: Can win the season's first Classic
Summary
Camelot has the statistics to overcome with none of the last 10 winners having raced exclusively over a mile, in fact, in the last 60 years only the brilliant Dancing Brave has won this Classic having done his racing solely over a mile.
Factoring in the record of Montjeu's progeny over a mile raises further concerns with his three year olds operating at a strike rate of around 5% over the trip since 2005 compared to three times that over ten furlongs or more.
The leading candidates are French Fifteen and Power with the latter preferred despite being beaten last time out in the Group One Dewhurst as his trainer has landed four of the last 10 renewals.
