Forecasts

Tip Top Mountain (5/4), Gold Clermont (7/4), Northern Poet (9/4), Hiway One O Three (5/2), Whydah Gally (5/1), First Figaro (7/1), Ballycross (25/1)

Verdict

TIP TOP MOUNTAIN confirmed he's still on the upgrade when adding another win to his tally at Uttoxeter 3 weeks ago and may still have more to offer over this sort of trip. In-form pair Hiway One O Three and Northern Poet are obvious threats.

  1. TIP TOP MOUNTAIN (IRE)
  2. HIWAY ONE O THREE (IRE)
  3. NORTHERN POET (IRE)
