Forecasts

Rathgar (9/4), Lion Of War (11/4), Royal Rhyme (4/1), Mindset (4/1), My Lion (6/1), Cool Party (13/2), High Honour (14/1)

A typically hot event for the track, but COOL PARTY stands out as being particularly interesting, having plenty in hand when scoring at Wolverhampton on his final start last term and seeming certain to appreciate the step up in trip. Lion of War ran well at Musselburgh last time and is another who should prove better-suited by middle distances, with Royal Rhyme getting slight preference of the remainder.
