Forecasts

Commanche Falls (2/1), Go Athletico (10/3), Shartash (4/1), Moss Tucker (8/1), Ano Syra (14/1), Big Gossey (14/1), Tango Flare (14/1), Hurricane Ivor (18/1), Thunderbear (20/1), Wodao (28/1), Coralillo (66/1)

Verdict

COMMANCHE FALLS is having another terrific season, making the breakthrough at pattern level in the Hackwood at Newbury last month, and is taken to defy a penalty and complete the hat-trick. Go Athletico and Moss Tucker were both placed in the Group 2 Sapphire Stakes here 3 weeks ago and rate the main threats back down in grade.

  1. COMMANCHE FALLS
  2. GO ATHLETICO (FR)
  3. MOSS TUCKER (IRE)
