Forecasts

Harbour Beacon (3/1), Spruce Meadows (4/1), Le Vagabond (8/1), De Coronado (8/1), Act Of Valour (8/1), Political Policy (12/1), Ringside Humour (14/1), Specific Gravity (16/1), Power Grid (16/1), Tonkinese (20/1), Vastonea (20/1), Brokopondo (20/1), Poitin (25/1), Presidio (33/1)

Verdict

Poitin ran well at Cork in June when last spotted and is given a chance back at this venue but DE CORONADO could reverse that form now. The Ballydoyle inmate was poor over a longer trip since but is weighted well for this and won a maiden on his only previous spin around this track over a mile. In what looks a wide open contest, there are plenty for whom cases can be made. The lightly-raced Harbour Beacon is sporting blinkers for this handicap debut and any support would be worth noting while Ringside Humour, Specific Gravity and Political Policy are always respected here.
  1. De Coronado
