Forecasts

Hamish (10/11), Galileo Dame (6/1), Layfayette (8/1), Rubies Are Red (11/1), Kortez Bay (14/1), Andromeda (16/1), North Africa (25/1), Lips Freedom (25/1), Ameerat Jumaira (25/1), Falcon Eight (28/1), Cristal Clere (33/1), Belhaven (33/1), Riviera Queen (33/1), Iseult Of Ireland (40/1), Mashhoor (50/1), Chally Chute (50/1), Taipan (50/1), Miss Tapley (66/1), Finsceal Luas (80/1)

HAMISH signalled he is ready to go in again when a good recent second in a Longchamp Group 2 so looks the way to go lowered in grade here. Course-specialist Layfayette appeals as the one to chase home William Haggas' smart veteran, with Falcon Eight, Chally Chute and Kortez Bay all worthy of respect too in the battle for minor honours.
