Forecasts

Pipesmoker (11/8), Robin's Dream (15/8), Red Rookie (5/2), Rabski (18/1), Cadmar (28/1), Galurin (33/1), Mister Watson (66/1), An Tailliur (150/1), Getthepot (150/1), Barrakhov (200/1), Tommie Beau (250/1), Picturesque View (300/1)

Verdict

This interesting novice may develop into a straight fight between PIPESMOKER and Robin's Dream, with a narrow preference for Nicky Henderson's returning 6-y-o who chased home the very smart Sporting John at Ascot when last seen a year ago. Red Rookie looks pick of the remainder.

  1. PIPESMOKER (FR)
  2. ROBIN'S DREAM
  3. RED ROOKIE
