Forecasts

Gossiping (5/2), The Warrior (5/2), Thaqaffa (6/1), Alejandro (15/2), Presumido (8/1), Harlequin Striker (12/1), Jufn (16/1), Kestrel Dot Com (25/1)

A few of these, notably Gossiping, Presumido and Alejandro require patient handling and a strong gallop. There is no obvious pace angle in this and as such THE WARRIOR is selected as he appears more tactically adaptable and appears to have improved following a gelding operation. Gossiping has to be feared should the race turn out to be run to suit. Thaqaffa has joined a good young trainer and his AW record suggests he could produce a big run at a rewarding price.
