Forecasts

Womalko (5/6), Happy Dreams (9/4), Berliet Express (8/1), Carrolls Cottage (12/1), Serenity Grove (16/1), Pennywell Girl (28/1)

Verdict

This should boil down to a duel between HAPPY DREAMS and Womalko, both of whom remain open to improvement as chasers. The latter failed to land the odds on his return here 3 weeks ago but he promises to be suited by this drop back in trip and he remains on an attractive mark. However, Happy Dreams has really got his act together of late and he is taken to complete the hat-trick. Berliet Express is best of the rest.

  1. HAPPY DREAMS (FR)
  2. WOMALKO (FR)
  3. BERLIET EXPRESS (IRE)
