Forecasts

Transpennine Star (9/4), La Fritillaire (9/2), Dan Emmett (5/1), Tuscan Gold (7/1), Riptide (11/1), Gran Maestro (11/1), Madam Lilibet (12/1), Lady Of Yue (16/1), Raktiman (20/1), Rock On Bollinski (33/1)

Verdict

This should be quite a test on the prevailing ground and TRANSPENNINE STAR wouldn’t really be winning out of turn but he may well just have enough in him to reverse his recent form with La Fritillaire who should once again run her race. Outside of that duo it’s hard to make a solid case for many of the others with a few temperamental types in the field. Gran Maestro hasn’t been seen on the Flat for a while but he should be capable off this mark and he along with Dan Emmett and Raktiman should give it a good shot at gaining a place.
  1. Transpennine Star
  2. La Fritillaire
  3. Gran Maestro
