Forecasts

Above Us Only Sky (4/1), Latchet (6/1), La Cumparsita (6/1), Indian Tomahawk (6/1), Acari (6/1), Harvey Specter (7/1), World's Greatest (8/1), Schoolboy Error (11/1), Rising Eagle (12/1), Bubbly Bellini (14/1), Surewhynot (14/1), Iconic Figure (16/1), Fashaar (20/1), Loose Chippings (20/1), Colombe Bleu (25/1), Tee Ranger (33/1), Highest Power (33/1)

Verdict

Prolific winner Koybig has a line through several of these so deciphering their relative merits through a line with that horse should offer us some clues. LA CUMPARSITA may have the best claims having been unlucky behind him latest in the middle leg of his hat-trick. World's Greatest was just ahead of the selection there so she too should have a chance despite a wide-draw. Latchet hasn't met Koybig but has been running really well although she too has a very tough draw.
  1. La Cumparsita
  2. World's Greatest
  3. Latchet
