Forecasts

Le Musigny (11/5), Tiger Voice (11/4), Benruben (9/2), Jack Hackett (5/1), Andalusa (6/1), Kildorrery (15/2), Battleoverdoyen (8/1), Valdieu (8/1), Zarkareva (14/1)

Verdict

The all-conquering Henry de Bromhead can dominate this. There is more to come from LE MUSIGNY over fences and he's hard to get away from on his handicap debut. Down Royal winner Benruben can go well again, while of the rest, Kildorrery is unlikely to be stopping at the finish once more.

  1. LE MUSIGNY (FR)
  2. BENRUBEN (IRE)
  3. KILDORRERY (IRE)
