Forecasts

Moss Tucker (6/5), Pretty Rebel (13/2), Craft Irish (15/2), Gustavus Weston (8/1), Lustown Baba (10/1), Markaz Paname (10/1), Big Gossey (14/1), Life In Colour (14/1), Dexter Belle (20/1), Affable (125/1)

Verdict

Preference is for MOSS TUCKER who holds the edge on form and shaped as though this return to 6f would suit when running on into fifth in the Prix de L'Abbaye at Longchamp last time. Recent course scorer Craft Irish arrives on the up and is next on the list with C&D winner Big Gossey and last year's victor Lustown Baba looking the duo best equipped to fight it out for minor honours.

  1. MOSS TUCKER (IRE)
  2. CRAFT IRISH (IRE)
  3. BIG GOSSEY (IRE)
