Thapa VC (11/8), Run Forrest Run (11/2), Soyounique (7/1), Port Noir (7/1), Light Lily (8/1), Rajmeister (9/1), Fly The Nest (16/1), Monaajez (25/1), Album (33/1)

Verdict

A low-mileage 4-y-o, THAPA VC did well to force a dead-heat in a messy race at Wolverhampton (7f) 23 days ago, notably quickening up well. From a 1 lb higher mark, he looks sure to go well again in his bid to land the hat-trick. Soyounique arrives in good order himself and is feared, whilst Rajmeister is not one to write off back from a break.
