Forecasts

Jaameh (9/4), Lexington Law (11/4), Opposition (11/4), Monjeni (3/1), Zenafire (11/2), Braes Of Lochalsh (14/1), Togetherness (16/1), Fantasy King (25/1)

Verdict

Opposition looks to be one who holds plenty of scope this year but the ground if it is on the quick side will be a worry having found that sort of surface finding him out last year. The trip is a doubt for Jaameh and he could be better over shorter with both Monjeni and Togetherness looking to be in the grip of the handicapper. Zenafire arrives here fit from hurdling and is one of the more interesting ones at a likely double-figure price. Alan King has his Flat performers in good fettle though and this contest looks a good opportunity for LEXINGTON LAW to get off the mark over a trip he should relish.
  1. Lexington Law
  2. Opposition
  3. Zenafire
