Forecasts

The Wexfordian (11/4), Gambol (3/1), Defining Year (4/1), Paddocks Lounge (7/1), Dusty Raven (15/2), Pension Madness (10/1), My Matador (25/1), Tg Boy (50/1), Hurricane Hunter (100/1)

Verdict

Paddocks Lounge sets the benchmark on recent form but represents new connections here and no longer has the assistance of the champion jockey. Positive market vibes around Defining Year would be interesting but THE WEXFORDIAN is taken to atone for a narrow recent defeat in this grade with the slightly longer trip likely to work to his advantage. Dusty Raven looks the pick of the remainder.
  1. The Wexfordian
  2. Paddocks Lounge
  3. Defining Year
