Forecasts

Full Time Score (10/3), Lord Lariat (4/1), Smoking Gun (11/2), Discordantly (6/1), Opposites Attract (6/1), Discorama (7/1), Defi Bleu (11/1), Off You Go (12/1), The Dabbler (12/1), Glamorgan Duke (50/1)

Verdict

THE DABBLER is holding his form and shaped well when second in a course handicap last time so, in a race where the majority have something to prove, he strikes as a solid choice. Defi Bleu is an obvious player if back on his game and Lord Lariat should be suited by a return to fences, so they're also considered.

  1. THE DABBLER (IRE)
  2. DEFI BLEU (FR)
  3. LORD LARIAT (IRE)
