Forecasts

Be Proud (9/4), Swiss Connection (7/1), Gorgeous General (9/1), Alqaab (9/1), Arnold (10/1), Gleaming Arch (12/1), Someone Exciting (14/1), On Route (16/1), The Grey Zebedee (18/1), Groundworker (22/1), Everkyllachy (22/1), Deeds Not Words (28/1), Kibaar (40/1), Hanati (50/1)

Verdict

A tough finale in which plenty hold a realistic chance, so it would be foolish to be bullish about the selection. Groundworker is a tricky customer who surprised the vast majority of onlookers when scoring in the mud at Hamilton but it'll come as no surprise if he's on the premises off a strong early pace (as a dual C&D winner). Be Proud has knocked at the door recently, while both Everkyllachy and SOMEONE EXCITING have talented 3lb claimers booked. The latter named mare burst through with a winning run at Catterick (6f) recently, and is able to race off a 3lb lower mark on the AW. Although a maiden on synthetics, she does handles Tapeta so could go close.
  1. Someone Exciting
  2. Alqaab
  3. Groundworker
