Forecasts

Bucky Larson (5/2), Spiorad Saoirse (4/1), Nordic Passage (11/2), Shawaf (6/1), Masalai (13/2), Parkers Hill (12/1), Tony The Gent (14/1), Sevenleft (16/1), Mr Ormsby (20/1), Master Speaker (33/1), Latchet (33/1), Atlas (40/1)

Verdict

Two-time course winner in the last two years, MASALAI can get the better of his rivals in this contest from the bottom of the weights. The six-year-old is a winner over C&D on two occasions from 10 starts and can get a decent pull into the race from January C&D winner Parkers Hill and the Denis Hogan-trained Atlas who are both drawn nearby. Tony The Gent , Bucky Larson and Nordic Passage can once again be expected to be on the premises at the business end of proceedings. C&D winner Latchet appears a lively one at a big price.
  1. Masalai
  2. Bucky Larson
  3. Nordic Passage
