Forecasts

Old Glory (15/8), The King (15/8), Riven Light (11/2), Guaranteed (7/1), Insignia Of Rank (10/1), Leroy Leroy (12/1), Pacific Ocean (14/1)

Verdict

The King is the one to beat, but the fact that he only has a maiden win to his name tempers confidence, and he isn't one to take a short price about. RIVEN LIGHT may offer better value, and although he's without a recent run, he won impressively after an absence at the Galway Festival last year. Old Glory had a stiff task last time, and is bred to improve at this trip, so is also worthy of consideration.
