Bit late...

There's an outside chance Island Brave has one big race left. If he can get anywhere close to that 2 mile run at Ascot a few years back (last to first in the straight), he could make the 200s on BF look pretty silly.

Proven on the course with a big run in this race a couple of years ago. I doubt he can front run today and expect to win this, but if Ethan Jones can hold him up nearer last until into the straight, there are possibilities.
