Forecasts

Montregard (5/6), Spago (11/10), Democritus (14/1), Delgany Dreamer (20/1), Shot Tower (20/1), Honneur De Sivola (25/1), Diamond Twin (33/1), The Full Pasty (33/1), Midnightinbresil (100/1), Lady Plumton (150/1)

Verdict

SPAGO took a step forward from his hurdling debut when third at Ascot last time and a performance of similar merit will probably be enough for him to get off the mark despite the presence of Montregard, who is open to considerable improvement. The others don't make much appeal.

  1. SPAGO (IRE)
  2. MONTREGARD (FR)
