The Verdict: Coventry calling for Confucius
By Andy Stephens
Last Updated: Mon 11 May 2026
Did we see the Coventry winner in action at Naas on Saturday in the shape of Confucius?
Angus McNae reckons the race is a natural fit for him, but Josh Kerr believes the Chesham might suit even better.
One thing our top presenters are both agreed on: “He’s a very talented two-year-old”.
The pair reckon Royal Ascot could also beckon for Brilliant Star, and what to make of the Derby credentials of James J Braddock and Pierre Bonnard after their clash at Leopardstown. Could the latter be more a St Leger type?
All this and more is discussed in the latest edition of The Verdict. Enjoy the show on our website or on YouTube.
