Forecasts

Kemboy (13/8), Al Boum Photo (7/4), Bellshill (5/1), Monalee (13/2), Definitly Red (22/1), The Storyteller (25/1), Snow Falcon (33/1), Sub Lieutenant (33/1)

AL BOUM PHOTO has been a revelation since his luckless effort at this meeting last year, and he should take all the beating given he's still relatively fresh after his Gold Cup success. Kemboy only got as far as the first in the Gold Cup, but is a big threat on his wins either side of that, and looks the only danger if the main contenders give their running. Monalee is consistent, and can grab a place.
