Forecasts

Chaparral Dream (11/8), Dream Focus (5/2), Sharjah (13/2), Ringo Kid (12/1), Indian Eye (12/1), Caronda (16/1), Poitin (16/1), Messerati Kid (20/1), Cape Agulhas (25/1), Roses Queen (25/1), Don Pedro (33/1), Reddot Dancer (40/1), Rockafilly (50/1), Paula's Prayer (66/1)

Verdict

The in form CHAPARRAL DREAM should be able to handle the burden of a 9lb rise following a facile win here over C&D two weeks ago. The Adrian McGuinness-trained four-year-old can continue the fine run of the yard and land the prize here seeing off the attentions of his biggest dangers, the Jim Bolger-trained Dream Focus, C&D winner Sharjah and Caronda who could go well at a price.
