oddschecker Verdict
There didn't appear to be any fluke about Prosperity Angel's success at Thirsk after stepping forward from a promising first run at Catterick. However, she faces several interesting newcomers, with the vote going to BENBECULA. A half-brother to the yard's Ain't Nobody, who won the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and was runner-up in the 2025 Nunthorpe, his price tag increased from 82,000gns as a foal to 240,000gns when selling at Tattersalls Book 1 and it would be no surprise to see him make a winning debut. Mehmas Star and Sarasota Blue Blue are others who command respect, especially the latter if the market speaks in her favour.
Prediction: 1st Benbecula, 2nd Prosperity Angel, 3rd Sarasota Blue Blue
