Forecasts

Flying Angel (7/4), Clan Des Obeaux (9/4), Cloudy Dream (11/4), Theinval (8/1), Oldgrangewood (14/1)

Verdict

A cracking small field assembled for this and Flying Angel is very much the one to beat on the evidence of his Aintree win last time. However, consistency is not his strong point and CLOUDY DREAM has that in abundance. It would be harsh to knock him for either of his runner-up efforts in Grade Ones of late and he might just be able to reverse the form with his Aintree conqueror. Clan Des Obeaux is the obvious danger to the pair of them and is not ruled out.
