Forecasts

Verdict

KYPRIOS has carried all before him this season and the current Ascot Gold Cup and Goodwood Cup winner is confidently expected to make it 5-5 and overcome this drop back in trip. Rosscarbery has also enjoyed a fine season and appeals as the one to chase home Aidan O'Brien's top-class stayer ahead of the returning Hamish and Irish St Leger Trial victor Raise You.
