Forecasts

Early Retirement (5/1), Shining Romeo (6/1), Blagapar (7/1), Black Buble (8/1), Balgemmois (8/1), Barton Knoll (9/1), Royal Ruby (9/1), Midnight Chill (9/1), Master Of Finance (10/1), Le Capricieux (10/1), Bomber's Moon (22/1), Master Work (25/1), Make Me A Fortune (66/1), Handsome Dan (66/1), Kiwayu (66/1)

Verdict

Royal Ruby goes on the short list up in trip on good ground, but a chance is taken with BLAGAPAR, who was progressive when last seen the best part of two years ago and is likely to have been primed for this return to action by his skilful trainer. A host of dangers are headed by Black Buble, Le Capricieux, Barton Knoll, Midnight Chill , Shining Romeo and Master Work.
  1. Blagapar
