Forecasts

De Benno (3/1), Wings Like Arion (3/1), Marlbrook (4/1), Grand Partner (5/1), Fruits Of Glory (8/1), Admiral Brian (9/1), Theophilus (16/1), Whatever Jacksays (20/1), Man With Van (50/1)

Verdict

The Joseph O'Brien-trained Marlbrook could possibly be the one to set the fractions here in the early stages with De Benno and Whatever Jacksays racing in behind. Grand Partner has been turning back the clock of late but may meet strong opposition in the shape of WINGS LIKE ARION who can possibly pounce late here to land the spoils.
  1. Wings Like Arion
  2. Grand Partner
  3. De Benno
