Forecasts

Chateau Conti (2/5), Hardline (4/1), Canelie (7/1), Mon Lino (8/1), Mystique Heights (20/1), Chesapeake (25/1), Jefferson Davis (33/1), Zoffanys Pride (50/1), Denham Sound (50/1), Ocean Explorer (66/1), Mezajy (66/1), Muhaafiz (100/1), Daisy Chicks (100/1), Jerigo (100/1), Gatacre Street (100/1), Crossed My Mind (100/1), Cloudybackwest (125/1), Jimmyjames (125/1), Qery (125/1), Circus Jack (125/1)

Verdict

This revolves around French recruit CHATEAU CONTI for the champion trainer. On his first start he merits respect and his trainer should have a handle on the form of Hardline after his fall last month. The latter should give him a race, but it will be a surprise should be prove good enough to win. Mezajy was decent on the level and should know more about this discipline today, while similar can be said of Ocean Explorer. Muhaafiz rates an interesting newcomer to jumping in a race where many have it all to prove. 1. Chateau Conti 2. Hardline 3. Muhaafiz
