Forecasts

Beamish (5/4), Emily Dickinson (5/2), Baron Samedi (6/1), Lismore (7/1), Mighty Blue (14/1), Pita Pinta (18/1), Taipan (25/1), Azallya (40/1), Star Image (80/1), Manu Et Corde (100/1), Seattle Creek (150/1), Scenic Look (150/1)

Verdict

BARON SAMEDI possesses much the best form on offer and, with his yard going well, is taken to make light of his six-month absence and open his account for the season. Lismore wasn't at her best in the Prix du Cadran at Longchamp last time but Henry de Bromhead's smart mare is still feared most with Beamish not discounted either on his first go over 2m.

  1. BARON SAMEDI
