Forecasts

Tapis Libre (7/4), Whinging Willie (7/4), Duke Of Yorkshire (5/1), Sureness (7/1), River Dart (8/1), Croquembouche (8/1), Silver Quay (14/1), Song Of Love (20/1), Turnbury (25/1)

Verdict

If Croquembouche can get back to something like his best in this then he would have decent claims, but preference is for TAPIS LIBRE, who comes here in form and on a mark from which he is probably capable of recording a third win in this contest. Duke Of Yorkshire should also go well for another branch of the Easterby family, while Silver Quay and Sureness are also respected.
  1. Tapis Libre
  2. Croquembouche
  3. Duke Of Yorkshire
