Forecasts

Sunrise Ruby (5/6), Sovereign Duke (10/3), Moon of Baroda (4/1), Hacksaw Ridge (15/2), If Karl's Berg Did (33/1), Dark Storm (150/1), Winter Tale (300/1)

Verdict

SOVEREIGN DUKE is the one to side with as he looked all set to make a winning start over hurdles here until coming down two out and today's longer trip will hold no fears to this fairly useful middle-distance stayer on the Flat. Sunrise Ruby rates the chief threat but Nicky Henderson's mare has a nine-month absence to overcome which tempers enthusiasm. Moon of Baroda looks the pick of the rest.

  1. SOVEREIGN DUKE (GER)
  2. SUNRISE RUBY (IRE)
  3. MOON OF BARODA
