Forecasts

Titus (13/8), Tennessee Wildcat (11/4), Massayan (7/2), Ceol Na Nog (4/1), Sir Edwin Landseer (5/1), Daybreak Boy (10/1), Dragon Fei (10/1)

Verdict

Tennessee Wildcat is a steady performer and looks certain to be involved when it matters but his striker rate is off-putting for win purposes. TITUS wasn't disgraced in a Listed race at the Curragh on his return and could have plenty more to come now. Given that Smullen is on his back over stablemate Massayan – who won over this C&D when spotted – he gets the nod of the promising Weld-trained pair. Daybreak Boy and former C&D scorer Ceol Na Nog are also worth monitoring.
