Forecasts

Omniscient (10/3), Dark Island (11/2), Rhythmic Intent (8/1), Diamond Bay (17/2), Alpine Stroll (17/2), Crescent Lake (17/2), Traila (9/1), Pons Aelius (9/1), Blow Your Horn (9/1), Secret Shadow (12/1), Saratoga Gold (14/1), Apparate (16/1), On To Victory (16/1)

Verdict

This looks extremely competitive with CRESCENT LAKE just about the most persuasive option on the back of an excellent second to one destined for pattern company at Ascot last month. Drying ground would help both Omniscient and Saratoga Gold and they head a lengthy list of dangers.

  1. CRESCENT LAKE
  2. OMNISCIENT
  3. SARATOGA GOLD
