Forecasts

Hayadh (11/4), Cold Stare (11/2), Muntadab (6/1), Starlight Romance (6/1), Al Erayg (7/1), Love Dreams (7/1), Air Raid (8/1), Three Saints Bay (10/1), Oriental Lilly (11/1), Rousayan (16/1)

Verdict

A competitive handicap in which top-weight Muntadab is likely to make a bold bid to repeat his success of 12 months ago. Three Saints Bay and Cold Stare are two of three contenders for their stable and the latter is narrowly preferred. However, he may have to give best this time to STARLIGHT ROMANCE, who gets a 3lb weight pull for a ¾L beating at Haydock and can turn the tables on this better ground. Air Raid is lightly raced and could be dangerous after undergoing wind surgery.
  1. Starlight Romance
  2. Cold Stare
