Forecasts

Vitralite (10/11), Brazen Arrow (7/2), Okeanos (5/1), Ostilio (6/1), Valorant (12/1), Butterfly Island (28/1)

Verdict

This could be a lively betting heat given 3 of these have dropped a long way in the weights but the safest option is BRAZEN ARROW on the back of a runner-up effort a fortnight ago. Vitralite had a very unsuccessful period in Hong Kong but the assessor has given him a big chance back in Britain.

  1. BRAZEN ARROW
  2. VITRALITE (IRE)
