Forecasts

Orderofthegarter (5/4), Glastonbury Song (9/2), Taj Mahal (5/1), Zorion (7/1), Firey Speech (7/1), Spanish Tenor (14/1), Maximus Daia (33/1)

It's quite possible race fitness will give the edge to ORDEROFTHEGARTER over his stable mate Taj Mahal. His recent win at Naas was impressive and he could prove a tough nut to crack. Fiery Speech has already shown his effectiveness at this track and his trainer is capable of getting them ready for their seasonal debut.
