Forecasts

Time To Study (11/4), American Gigolo (13/2), Night Of Glory (8/1), Graceland (8/1), Mixboy (17/2), Brandon Castle (10/1), Sir Chauvelin (12/1), Carbon Dating (12/1), Euchen Glen (14/1), Clever Cookie (14/1), Mirsaale (20/1), Cape Cova (20/1), Mount Tahan (22/1), Fire Jet (33/1)

Verdict

A very competitive stayers' event on paper and the suggestion is AMERICAN GIGOLO, who is improving nicely, stays well and looks capable of defying his latest 3lb rise. Time To Study is likely to be among the dangers, while Graceland is another feared is able to produce her best. Sir Chauvelin and Mixboy are others who make appeal in a tricky race for punters.
  1. American Gigolo
  2. Sir Chauvelin
  3. Time To Study
