Forecasts

Sir Will (9/4), Earlshill (11/4), The Sweeney (7/2), Indian Hercules (10/1), Game On (11/1), Cloth Cap (12/1), Allez Jacques (16/1), Eurato (20/1), Ted Thistle (20/1), Innisfree Lad (66/1), Tailor Tom (100/1), Chase Me (100/1), Mead Vale (100/1), Arthur's Reuben (100/1), Downloadtheapp (100/1), Katara Bay (100/1)

Verdict

This is very much a case of quantity rather than quality but it remains a hard race to call. Earlshill and Cloth Cap represent top yards but have only shown modest form. The latter probably has the greater scope and has the benefit of a recent run. Eurato and Indian Hercules are interesting debutants, whilst Ted Thistle would be one to keep a close eye on if supported. THE SWEENEY represents a yard whose horses are running exceptionally well at present. Hailing from a good family and having shown promise on his racecourse debut, there will be few easier opportunities for him to open his account.
  1. The Sweeney
  2. Cloth Cap
  3. Earlshill
