Forecasts

Winner Takes Itall (1/1), Frankincense (5/2), Falcon Eight (11/2), Persian Lion (8/1), Theotonius (20/1), She Got Fast (25/1), Spanish Verse (33/1), Descendant (50/1), Lady Yasmin (66/1)

Verdict

FRANKINCENSE may do better in first-time headgear here having shown plenty of promise in his debut effort and he's likely to come good before too long. Falcon Eight is an interesting debutante for Dermot Weld who makes appeal on paper but Winner Takes Itall could be the main danger after a promising run on debut here.
  1. Frankincense
  2. Winner Takes Itall
  3. Falcon Eight
