Forecasts

Al Asef (2/1), King Robert (3/1), Smokey Lane (4/1), Gentlemen (5/1), Red Alert (6/1), Classic Pursuit (20/1)

If you are looking for promise in this sprint then you will be drawn in the direction of Al Asef with Ryan Moore taking the ride and the cheekpieces being employed for the first-time. He’s been given a chance by the handicapper but has had plenty of chances and there may be more solid options at the prices. RED ALERT is taken to build on his fourth at Kempton last month, a run that suggested he was capable of winning off this mark with King Robert a C&D winner taken to provide the main danger.
