Forecasts

Mahanakhon (7/4), Cabinet Of Clowns (7/2), Roach Power (7/1), Double Time (9/1), Francesi (11/1), Sly Madam (12/1), Evocative Spark (14/1), Youarenotforgiven (16/1), G'daay (22/1), Point Of Fact (50/1)

Verdict

MAHANAKHON shouldn't be ovefaced by an opening mark of 78 and Tim Easterby's gelding can follow up from his recent Wetherby success. Roach Power represents the same connections and is lurking on a potentially lenient mark, whilst Francesi is also capable of getting in the mix if translating his form on artificial surfaces to turf,

  1. MAHANAKHON
  2. ROACH POWER (IRE)
  3. FRANCESI (IRE)
