Forecasts

Flag Of St George (13/8), Art Historian (5/1), Mimi Kakushi (13/2), White Christmas (7/1), Goodeveningmrbond (12/1), Survivalist (14/1), Centurion Dream (16/1), Sugarloaf Lenny (16/1), Maymay (22/1), Townsend Manor (22/1), Magnificentforce (40/1), Diddy Man (100/1), Tokyo Dreamer (100/1), States (125/1)

Verdict

FLAG OF ST GEORGE displayed definite promise, not least with a view to stepping up to this trip, when fourth in a 7-runner novice here last month and, with progress anticipated, he gets the nod to come out on top. White Christmas similarly shaped well despite finishing last of 3 on his debut at the Guineas Meeting and is a lead threat. Art Historian and Survivalist could emerge as the pick of the newcomers.

  1. FLAG OF ST GEORGE (IRE)
  2. WHITE CHRISTMAS (IRE)
  3. ART HISTORIAN
