Forecasts

Whisperinthebreeze (4/1), Snugsborough Hall (4/1), Se Mo Laoch (9/2), Undressed (6/1), Hugo 'n Taz (9/1), Teacher's Pet (10/1), Aherlow (10/1), Major Destination (10/1), Double Portrait (16/1), The Ballyboys (20/1), Amaulino (28/1)

Verdict

SE MO LAOCH is enjoying a tremendous run of form and is taken to gain a third win during this purple patch by maintaining superiority over similarly in form Snugsborough Hall who is sure to go well himself now 4lb better off with his conqueror over C&D. Unexposed pair Whisperinthebreeze and Aherlow add intrigue and the former is particularly feared if proving his stamina over this considerably longer trip.
