Forecasts

King's Pavilion (7/2), Masham Star (9/2), Medburn Dream (5/1), Donncha (5/1), Mythical Madness (11/2), High Acclaim (10/1), Able Jack (12/1), Brilliant Vanguard (16/1), Mr Scaramanga (16/1)

Verdict

Mythical Madness ran well in this race last year from a higher handicap mark when runner-up and ought to go well again after some fair efforts on all-weather in recent times. However, preference is for KING'S PAVILION who will appreciate the rain that has arrived this week and he should get a decent pace to aim at here. Mr Scaramanga is very frustrating to follow but Silvestre De Sousa taking over must be considered a positive and he holds place claims along with Medburn Dream and Donncha
  1. King's Pavilion
  2. Mythical Madness
  3. Mr Scaramanga
