Forecasts

Grand Bazaar (11/4), Shandoz (10/3), Wise Glory (10/3), Bronze River (4/1), Al Madhar (13/2), Orczy (22/1)

Verdict

Shandoz should be doing well over this sort of trip in the months ahead and any money for him on seasonal bow should be noted. Al Madhar shed his unbeaten record in the Dante at York and is respected going into a handicap for the first time but does have a burden to carry. The hat-trick seeking Grand Bazaar remains capable of better but WISE GLORY ears the nod after wins at Leicester and Newmarket. His yard remains in superb form and he may find more improvement forthcoming back on a sounder surface after defying soft going at HQ last time.
  1. Wise Glory
  2. Grand Bazaar
  3. Al Madhar
