Forecasts

Classic Getaway (1/3), Whatsavailable (5/1), Prevaricate (5/1), Geni De La Cour (11/1), The Waltzer (14/1), Salvador Ziggy (25/1), Machine Learner (66/1), Percy Pi (125/1), Watch The Weather (150/1), Johnny Clarke (200/1), Jakie Mac (250/1), Leis Fein (250/1), Jeweller (250/1), Jet Street (300/1)

Verdict

CLASSIC GETAWAY was undone by a steadily-run small field contest on hurdles debut at the beginning of the month but his potential pretty much remains intact and this expensive pointer should make no mistake this time. Geni de la Cour and Prevaricate can chase him home.

  1. CLASSIC GETAWAY (IRE)
  2. GENI DE LA COUR (FR)
  3. PREVARICATE (IRE)
