Forecasts

Feud (3/1), Dubai Welcome (9/2), Lion Kingdom (5/1), El Jasor (11/2), Scintillante (6/1), Valsad (11/1), Order Of Malta (12/1), Enochdhu (12/1), Croeso Cymraeg (16/1), Vaynor (25/1), Greystoke (40/1), Eagle Court (40/1), Clever Relation (80/1), Renardeau (125/1)

Verdict

A winner at Chester 2 starts back, SCINTILLANTE would highly likely have finished runner-up but for getting his run checked at a crucial stage when fourth behind a rapidly improving William Haggas in-mate at Ascot 3 weeks ago. Open to further progress, he can confirm his present mark workable, with fellow 3-y-o Lion Kingdom next best. Valsad, a disappointment at Doncaster in the spring, isn't one to give up on and along with Vaynor, completes the shortlist.

  1. SCINTILLANTE
  2. LION KINGDOM
  3. VALSAD (IRE)
