Forecasts

Just Brilliant (11/4), Farnese (3/1), Muraahin (3/1), Kudbegood (9/2), Emphatic (14/1), Jackmel (14/1), Clef De Voute (18/1), Guiding (18/1), Royal Marksman (25/1), Minky (25/1), Florence Thompson (28/1), Maestro Stick (28/1), Ranger Bob (33/1), Lady Laidlaw (50/1), Sors (50/1), Mairead Kate (66/1), Storm Approaching (100/1)

Verdict

MURAAHIN and Kudbegood occupied the first two positions in a C&D handicap a month ago and they may well come to the fore again, with the former weighted to turn the tables. Of the rest, Just Brilliant has to be taken seriously.

  1. MURAAHIN
  2. KUDBEGOOD (IRE)
  3. JUST BRILLIANT (IRE)
