Forecasts

Ballyquin (3/1), Inaam (7/2), National Glory (11/2), Highland Acclaim (7/1), Zafaranah (7/1), Gold Stone (10/1), Little Palaver (12/1), The Establishment (14/1), Mont Kiara (14/1), Gold Hunter (25/1)

Verdict

A very tricky contest with no fewer than seven of the ten runners being winners on their respective latest outings, therefore stakes should be kept at the minimum. Gold Stone remains unexposed on an artificial surface and could prove suited by the way in which this race will be run (arrives fast and late), although her rider Jamie Spencer will need to negotiate a smooth passage through the beaten horses. Therefore, we'll take a chance on a similarly progressive and lightly-raced horse, BALLYQUIN. His rider Joshua Bryan has been knocking in a few winners of late, and Andrew Balding's 4yo colt is a C&D winner (novice) who competes from a perfectly fair mark on handicap debut.
  1. Ballyquin
  2. Gold Stone
  3. Inaam
