Forecasts

Appreciate It (11/10), Eric Bloodaxe (11/4), Risk Factor (6/1), Wide Receiver (6/1), Lieutenant Command (14/1), Fantasio D'alene (16/1), Shakespeare's Word (16/1), Brandy Harbour (100/1)

Verdict

ERIC BLOODAXE looks the one to beat in a race won last year by the still unbeaten Envoi Allen and the selection can maintain his own unbeaten record following his C&D success last time out. Lieutenant Command is a danger, despite the fact this is plenty tougher than his debut under Rules last time out. The main threat could be Risk Factor if he takes another step forward from his C&D win last time.
  1. Eric Bloodaxe
  2. Risk Factor
  3. Lieutenant Command
