Forecasts

Ozzie The Oscar (2/1), Diego Du Charmil (5/2), God's Own (7/2), San Benedeto (5/1), Theo (9/1)

Verdict

Only the five runners for this years renewal and hard to discount any of them. Diego Du Charmil and SAN BENEDETO both remain with significant potential over fences for last years winning trainer Paul Nicholls. Slight preference is for the latter who gave Altior a real race when the pair clashed with God's Own in April. He gets weight off his stablemate here and could be hard to contain. Ozzie The Oscar had a spin over hurdles and should be cherry ripe for this and shouldn't be discounted either.
  1. San Benedeto
  2. Diego Du Charmil
  3. God's Own
