Forecasts

For Richard (13/8), Johni Boxit (11/2), Apache Blaze (13/2), Up The Aisle (7/1), Thunderoad (17/2), Tanqeeb (10/1), Zayriyan (10/1), Brown Eyes Blue (16/1), Salsa Dip (25/1), Glencoe Boy (40/1), Medici Moon (50/1), Thornaby Spirit (50/1), Lightning Bug (50/1), Bean Chlonard (80/1)

Verdict

FOR RICHARD didn't look totally straightforward when hitting the front over C&D 11 days ago, but he did get the job done and a 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent a very bold follow-up bid in what is a similar quality of race. Zayriyan and Apache Blaze appear to be the chief threats.

  1. FOR RICHARD
  2. ZAYRIYAN (IRE)
  3. APACHE BLAZE
