Forecasts

Santonito (15/8), The Nice Guy (9/4), Bravo Team (7/2), Steel Cable (7/1), Western Flyer (10/1), Watch The Weather (11/1), Burn The Evidence (12/1), The Flier Begley (12/1), Jinxs Link (16/1), Saratoga Lass (22/1), Gonfalonier (25/1), Hi Ski (80/1), Arabella Star (80/1), Crookedstone (100/1), Rednecked Woman (150/1)

Verdict

The big guns will presumably fight this out, with the Willie Mullins-trained THE NICE GUY fancied to get the better of Santonito, who is pick of Gordon Elliott's duo if jockey bookings are anything to go by. Steel Cable also makes plenty of appeal on paper.

  1. THE NICE GUY (IRE)
  2. SANTONITO (FR)
  3. STEEL CABLE (IRE)
