Forecasts

The Kings Writ (5/2), Alberto's Dream (11/4), General Girling (7/2), Kilmurvy (11/2), Dylanseoghan (6/1), Colmers Hill (7/1), Sutter's Mill (16/1), Monet Moor (33/1)

Verdict

ALBERTO"S DREAM and The Kings Writ make most appeal although their big weights are a concern. The former relishes these conditions and appears to have been found another opportunity. The Kings Writ has potential off this mark, but there are stamina doubts regarding Dylanseoghan given the way he tired last time. Colmers Hill would be a danger if cheekpieces can persuade him to produce his best.
  1. Alberto's Dream
