Forecasts

Tulip Dress (3/1), Black Caesar (7/2), Zavikon (7/2), Miss Icon (9/2), Evanescent (8/1), Gala Celebration (9/1), German Whip (10/1), Rockley Point (12/1), Pass The Cristal (14/1), Chicago Star (14/1), Mansfield (16/1)

Verdict

Quite a few of these were in better form earlier in the year but have tended to struggle a bit of late and come here with question marks against them. Black Caesar would one of that group with his mark looking awkward despite a good course record with Zavikon another that fits into that group although both should run well. German Whip is one that is interesting at likely double figure odds given his form last year along with Chicago Star. TULIP DRESS appears to be one of the most solid options though with just a slight improvement needed for her to revert to winning form.
  1. Tulip Dress
  2. German Whip
  3. Black Caesar
