I have four selections and you can watch how they all fare on Racing TV.
1.10 Listowel: The Acropolis
Aidan O’Brien tends to leave plenty to work on when it comes to campaigning his two-year-olds and on his debut this son of Churchill flashed plenty of ability, while at the same time looking to be a work in progress.
He was considerately handled by Ryan Moore, finishing fourth in a good looking maiden. His sire was beaten in that same race at the Curragh in 2016 before taking a huge step forward winning the Chesham at Royal Ascot on his next start. I expect The Acropolis to make similar progression.
