Forecasts

Tommy's Oscar (13/8), Goobinator (2/1), Vision Du Puy (4/1), Pencreek (6/1), Gemologist (8/1), Breguet Boy (11/1), Three Castles (25/1), Jorgie (50/1), Battle Of Wills (125/1)

Verdict

TOMMY'S OSCAR defied a penalty with a bit in hand at Newcastle a month ago and with more to come, he may well find the improvement his opening mark calls for. Goobinator will be suited by this track/drop in distance and is feared, while Vision du Puy also makes some appeal.

  1. TOMMY'S OSCAR (IRE)
  2. GOOBINATOR (USA)
  3. VISION DU PUY (FR)
