Forecasts

Wordsworth (5/4), Princess Zoe (10/3), Twilight Payment (5/1), Emperor Of The Sun (13/2), Barrington Court (17/2), Amhran Na Bhfiann (12/1), Camorra (14/1), Aircraft Carrier (66/1), Questionare (100/1), Dinard Rose (100/1), Seattle Sound (250/1)

Verdict

PRINCESS ZOE fully confirmed the better signs at Gowran previously when posting a career-best second in the Ascot Gold Cup in June. She gets the nod to cope with the drop back in trip and enhance her excellent record for the Tony Mullins stable. 3-y-o Wordsworth, back up in trip, Emperor of The Sun and Melbourne Cup hero Twilight Payment head up the dangers.

  1. PRINCESS ZOE (GER)
  2. WORDSWORTH (IRE)
  3. EMPEROR OF THE SUN (IRE)
