Forecasts

Dallas Des Pictons (7/2), Cuneo (7/2), Pleasure Dome (4/1), Calie Du Mesnil (8/1), Salty Boy (8/1), Flawless Escape (8/1), Oscar Knight (10/1), Brosna George (10/1), Jimmy Breekie (12/1), Cap York (14/1), The Gatechecker (16/1), Tigris River (20/1), Mary Frances (20/1), Boot Camp (25/1), Nobody Home (28/1), Mon Lino (50/1)

Verdict

A highly competitive renewal in which Gigginstown have a host of live chances. It might be worth taking a chance on the unexposed CAP YORK after a solid effort in Grade 2 company last time and he should continue to progress now in handicap company. Cuneo should be popular after a course and distance success last time out while the mare Pleasure Dome is an interesting runner for last year's winning stable on ground she ought to relish.
  1. Cap York
  2. Cuneo
  3. Pleasure Dome
