Forecasts

Baratineur (11/8), Trapper Peak (3/1), Copt Hill (6/1), Strait Run (8/1), Outback Blue (8/1), Hey Bob (10/1), Surrender (18/1), Cyrano Star (20/1), Aza Run (33/1), Starplex (66/1), First Of Never (80/1)

Verdict

With respect to connections this is a truly turgid finale. The case both for and against Baratineur can be argued with almost equal vigour, although having found precious little off the bridle at Catterick recently, it's just about advisable to take on the Sam England-trained charge at his predicted short odds. Therefore, the only viable alternative is the rejuvenated C&D winner COPT HILL who has kept reasonably solid form in similar porous events of late at Newcastle.
