Forecasts

Le Vagabond (5/2), Song Of Love (7/2), Duchessofflorence (4/1), Brokopondo (11/2), Udogo (13/2), Political Policy (8/1), Specific Gravity (10/1), Catchy Lass (10/1), Oakmont (12/1), Birthplace (20/1), Erlkonig (33/1), Glenbank King (50/1)

Verdict

This is an extremely tough puzzle to solve, with the first six home from a C&D contest three weeks ago all set to line-up. Song Of Love prevailed on that occasion by just a neck from Duchessofflorence with Political Policy (third), Catchy Lass (fourth), Udogo (fifth) and Specific Gravity (sixth) all close enough behind to ensure they aren't to be written off. Duchessofflorence is 2lb better off with the winner and might be capable of reversing the form. All of them might give best to BROKOPONDO, who scored a C&D win of his own a fortnight ago, and is capable of doing so again with 4lb more on his back.
  1. Brokopondo
  2. Duchessofflorence
  3. Song Of Love
