Forecasts

Favorite Moon (11/10), Postileo (85/40), Not So Sleepy (5/1), Stargazer (16/1), Gentleman At Arms (18/1), Cayirli (33/1), Sir Chauvelin (66/1)

Verdict

FAVORITE MOON was second in a stronger race than this last time and, as such, is a straightforward selection to go one better. Postileo has put together a string of solid performances this season, so he ranks as the main danger despite a 4-month break, while Cayirli warrants a mention returning from another big absence (goes well fresh).

  1. FAVORITE MOON (GER)
  2. POSTILEO (IRE)
  3. CAYIRLI (FR)
