Forecasts

Enigmatic (11/4), Eligible (9/2), Hortzadar (6/1), Redarna (7/1), Trais Fluors (17/2), Ventura Rascal (9/1), Bearaway (10/1), Strongbowe (11/1), Perfect Swiss (18/1)

Verdict

HORTZADOR races off the same mark as when successful at Ripon in the spring and it might be worth taking a chance that first-time cheekpieces help him to bounce back to form. Strongbowe and Eligible are a couple of obvious threats, while Bearaway would also be a big player if translating his AW form over to turf.

  1. HORTZADAR
  2. STRONGBOWE (FR)
  3. ELIGIBLE (IRE)
