Forecasts

Ashazuri (11/4), Kirkland Forever (11/4), Betsalottie (7/2), Windsorlot (7/1), Epsom Secret (7/1), Top Beak (12/1), Ready (12/1), Turnbury (14/1), Solveig's Song (25/1)

Verdict

Ashazuri ran very well at Brighton last time out, but a 4lb rise seems a little bit harsh (despite the fact the front two were clear), and preference is for WINDSORLOT. He may be higher in the weights than at the time of his only previous win on turf, but he has shown he can operate off this kind of rating on the AW recently and there's no reason he shouldn't be able to replicate that kind of ability back on the grass. Epsom Secret is another who has been doing well recently and could be third best.
  1. Windsorlot
  2. Ashazuri
  3. Epsom Secret
