Forecasts

Plantagenet (10/3), Go West Young Man (7/2), Kings Temptation (4/1), Midnight Gem (11/2), Miss Yeats (7/1), Whin Park (10/1), Canyouringmeback (16/1), Hab Sab (33/1), Jolly Jet (50/1)

Verdict

Whin Park is an interesting runner following a couple of wins in point-to-points last month, but his record under rules is disappointing and he needs to put that right. Go West Young Man may do better over this longer trip, but the vote goes to KINGS TEMPTATION, who shaped well on his chasing debut and can be expected to improve for the experience. Midnight Gem may do best of the rest.
  1. Kings Temptation
  2. Go West Young Man
  3. Whin Park
