Forecasts

Yes My Boy (5/2), Dubai Mirage (3/1), Red Bond (9/2), Nicklaus (13/2), Count Of Amazonia (12/1), Huboor (14/1), So Beloved (16/1), Sameem (25/1), Sha La La La Lee (28/1), Storm Ahead (33/1), Club Wexford (100/1)

Verdict

Three-year-olds are likely to headline this contest with all four of them meriting respect. The verdict goes to Archie Watson's charge YES MY BOY whose two placed efforts this season both suggest there is mileage in a current career-high mark of 93. After finding the uber-competitive Britannia a tough act latest Dubai Mirage can be expected to fare much better today and he may prove the biggest danger although Count Of Amazonia's last run brings him into the mix too.
  1. Yes My Boy
  2. Dubai Mirage
  3. Count Of Amazonia
