Forecasts

Deleyll (2/1), Kybosh (5/1), Vipin (6/1), Mr Carbonator (6/1), Traveller (8/1), Thawry (10/1), Red Gunner (10/1), Sunshineandbubbles (12/1), Apache Blaze (14/1), Archdeacon (25/1), Rock Up In Style (80/1), Natty Dresser (100/1)

Verdict

A tricky contest to figure out, with the consistent but frustrating Kybosh likely to be fancied yet again despite failing to justify favouritism for the third time in his career when bumping into an in-form rival at Kempton recently. Apache Blaze is interesting if she manages to build upon her encouraging effort over C&D last time out, while Mr Carbonator rarely runs a poor race and with the services of Ben Curtis it would be a surprise to see him finish out of the frame. The vote is shaded in favour of SUNSHINEANDBUBBLES who is difficult to oppose when running at this track (three-time C&D winner) and proved his wellbeing when placed over 1m4f here last time out.
  1. Sunshineandbubbles
  2. Mr Carbonator
  3. Kybosh
