Van Gogh is very difficult to oppose dropping into maiden company after finishing 2nd in Group 2 last time, but for a bit of interest I have done a couple of each ways to small stakes. SWIFT FLIGHT showed some promise when 6th of 15 (16/1) on debut at Tipperary two weeks ago. He should improve, he is out of half sister to Success Days, who was a star for this stable winning at up to Group 2 level. Other one is the favourite’s stablemate NATIONAL BALLET, his dam (sister to Maybe) won on debut and 5 out of her 6 siblings won or placed on debut.
Only small each way bets on these two at prices of 17/2 & 14/1 respectively, as the very short priced favourite really ought to win this.
