Forecasts

Kosciuszko (6/4), Durrell (5/2), Kaloor (8/1), Koeman (9/1), Breath Caught (9/1), Francis Xavier (12/1), Protected Guest (14/1), Restorer (20/1)

Plenty of these look vulnerable in handicaps, but DURRELL is the type to relish this increased test of stamina and is taken to gain a first handicap win on his third attempt. Kosciuszko flopped at Goodwood, but he was just behind Melrose winner Hamish at Newbury prior to that, and is a big threat if consenting to settle. Breath Caught looks best of the older generation.
