Forecasts

Valentino (15/8), Presenting Yeats (3/1), Kendelu (7/2), Princess Ruby (7/1), Get An Oscar (7/1), Watching Brief (14/1), Call His Bluff (18/1), Mabela (20/1), Our Idic Boy (25/1), Thestopperdunne (80/1)

Verdict

Having tumbled a long way in the weights, KENDELU stopped the slide when runner-up at Hereford a fortnight ago and now looks too well treated to ignore. Presenting Yeats continues in fine form and is second choice, with Valentino also considered.

  1. KENDELU (IRE)
  2. PRESENTING YEATS (IRE)
