At first glance, I'm not keen on Accumulate's form & think he's not classy enough for the Cups. St Leger form is generally iffy, & had no real form around quality opps before that. Personally I wouldnt project its ratings to 119 just yet. Point taken about the trainer though, if it starts stringing together 114's in the lead-up the Cup....you never know.

At the moment I'm a Vouvray fan & also Wild Iris. Both these two have been given plenty of time to mature. Look at Vouvray's WFA form, only 2 to 4 lengths of the nations very best. Did a faster final 200m in the CC last year than Diva. Personally I think the MC is a better target for her.

Ditto Wild Iris. I was quite taken with her 3yo form. Huge finishing sprint & will get 3200m easy. Touch wood she seems to have come back well & Walter is just flying atm. Some rain wouldnt hurt either

How about Xcellent, you have any kiwi figures? Made up huge ground first-up in a race where the leaders kept going strong to line. Forget his Derby run altogether.

Interesting to here about Super Kid's quality....consistently in the 120's??? Experience on Strathayre too.
