Forecasts

White Mocha (5/2), Yaafour (4/1), Abandon Ship (9/2), Al Jellaby (5/1), Nuits St Georges (5/1), Desert Path (12/1), Nebuchadnezzar (14/1), Enzo (20/1), Pippin (25/1), Red Miracle (100/1), The Night King (100/1), Amenhotepthethird (250/1), Swiss Psalm (250/1)

Verdict

An interesting opener, where all three penalised runners are probably vulnerable, though White Mocha perhaps has more improvement in him this time than either Yaafour or Enzo. Abandon Ship and Al Jellaby are others to consider, along with debutante Pippin. However, NUITS ST GEORGES did really well on debut at Sandown and may have sufficient improvement in him to win this time.
  1. Nuits St Georges
  2. White Mocha
  3. Yaafour
