Jim Bolger’s unbeaten colt extended his winning sequence to four under Kevin Manning in the Group One feature, with Ladbrokes cutting his price for the Newmarket Classic to 6-1 market leader from 14-1. Holy Roman Emperor was pushed out to 10-1.

Paddy Power make him 8-1 for the Guineas, while William Hill were forced to go 6-1 after seeing plenty of interest at an initial 7-1. Boylesports were even more impressed at 4-1. The big-race sponsors are 13-2.
