Forecasts

Louie de Palma (3/1), Silent Echo (7/2), Holmeswood (9/2), Miracle of Medinah (5/1), Reflektor (6/1), Son Of Africa (8/1), Volatile (14/1), Outback Traveller (14/1), Mullionheir (20/1), Red Alert (25/1), Syrian Pearl (50/1)

Verdict

The Montfort Handicap at Ascot in early May holds plenty of clues with SILENT ECHO (second), Miracle Of Medinah (third) and Volatile (fourth) all recommencing battle on similar fast underfoot conditions. The selection is a C&D winner since, so has more to do off a 5lb higher mark, but there's every likelihood that he'll continue to improve (for the time being at least), with previous trainer Roger Charlton perhaps now regretting moving him on for 120,000 gns in October 2017.
  1. Silent Echo
  2. Son Of Africa
  3. Miracle of Medinah
