Forecasts

Mushirif (5/2), Skytree (3/1), Saratoga Gold (9/2), Nellie Moon (11/2), Mickydee (7/1), Night Moment (17/2)

All six of these are in with a shout. MUSHIRIF went down narrowly on his recent handicap bow at Wolverhampton and, with the possibility of better to come from Roger Varian's charge at this trip, he shades preference ahead of Saratoga Gold. The latter may well benefit from this stiffer test and the booking of Ryan Moore adds to his appeal. Night Moment is third choice.
