Forecasts

The Whipmaster (11/4), Pride Of Priory (3/1), State Of Bliss (8/1), Charging Thunder (9/1), Southern Voyage (10/1), Pretty Sweet (11/1), Onesmoothoperator (12/1), Celtic Art (12/1), Bad Company (12/1), Angel Power (16/1), Faylaq (33/1), Danehill Kodiac (40/1)

Verdict

PRIDE OF PRIORY has got firmly back on the up on all-weather in recent months, successful at Kempton in June and doing well to overcome trouble-in-running to reel in another progressive sort at Newcastle 2 weeks ago. He gets the vote to complete the hat-trick, with The Whipmaster and Charging Thunder, who also continue to thrive, next best.

  1. PRIDE OF PRIORY
