Forecasts

Solar Impulse (7/2), Generous Day (7/2), Movie Legend (4/1), Mixboy (7/1), Vendor (17/2), Yorkist (10/1), Baby King (12/1), Montalbano (20/1), Oliver's Gold (28/1), Caraline (33/1), Fair Loch (50/1)

Verdict

Montalbano would be of interest if wind surgery has had an immediately positive effect, but in truth this looks very competitive and he will have to be back to near his best to win it. Baby King has claims if putting his best foot forward, Mixboy and the dropped-in-grade Yorkist each has a chance, while Movie Legend should be thereabouts again. However, it could be worth chancing OLIVER'S GOLD to come back to form now 9lb lower than his last time.
  1. Oliver's Gold
  2. Yorkist
  3. Movie Legend
