FormscanBy Tom Weekes - CONFUCIUS was the beaten favourite in last week’s Coventry Stakes but nonetheless ran solidly and can make a quick winning reappearance. Out of a Cheveley Park Stakes-winning dam, the selection had no excuses at Royal Ascot but was only beaten 1.75 lengths in that hot contest and drops in grade today. Ballinea Star was quite green on her initial two starts before scoring at Cork but steps up in grade while stablemate Immortal Guard finished third to the Coventry-winner in the Marble Hill Stakes in May and can figure. Mr Predicted is from the first crop of his American sire and was purchased for 300,000 dollars at a March breeze-up sale.
