Forecasts

Granary Queen (7/4), Muscika (9/4), Count Otto (5/2), Mellys Flyer (15/2), Lumacho (28/1)

Verdict

COUNT OTTO has bounced back to winning ways on his last 2 starts, scoring at this C&D in July before following up at Windsor 11 days later, and he remains well treated on old form. He is taken to see off the challenge of Granary Queen, who ran as well as ever when headed on the line at Brighton last time. Muscika is also capable of getting involved.

  1. COUNT OTTO (IRE)
  2. GRANARY QUEEN (IRE)
  3. MUSCIKA
