A cracking little race. Kinane on Scorpion and Murtagh on Septimus.. Sixties Icon looked brilliant on his return this year but has to overcome course form with Sir Percy from the Derby last year..

I was disappointed with scorpion at Chester, esepecially as i was told he was going really well at home and they were confident. Softer ground will help him, but that can also be said for Septimus, who was the ante post derby fav a couple of years ago for quite sometime and i really like him for this.
