Forecasts

Sandhurst Lad (5/2), Steps And Stairs (7/2), The Lion Dancer (5/1), Angels Antics (6/1), Norse Legend (13/2), Alberto's Dream (8/1), Newtown Lad (9/1), Tzar De L'Elfe (9/1), Lac Sacre (10/1), Western Climate (14/1), Victors Serenade (14/1), Irish Octave (20/1), Paddy The Oscar (20/1)

Verdict

This should be run at a solid pace, with the veteran Paddy The Oscar only knowing one way to go and that's hard from the front, and despite the fact he's now old enough to buy a lottery ticket, the enthusiasm still remains and the others will need to keep him in their sights. ANGELS ANTICS has all the size you want from a chasing mare and if she can just take another small step forward from her previous chasing efforts, this could be her day. Sandhurst Lad is in form but has a bit more to do, so preference for the places is for Tzar De L'Elfe and Norse Legend.
  1. Angels Antics
  2. Tzar De L'Elfe
  3. Norse Legend
