Forecasts

Jeff Koons (85/40), Botanical (11/4), Mantoog (3/1), Elegancia (15/2), Blueflagflyinghigh (17/2), New Dayrell (28/1)

An impressive winner at Hamilton on his penultimate start, BOTANICAL lost little caste in defeat when chasing home a smart prospect in novice company at Kempton (1m) 31 days ago and, from an appealing opening mark, he looks the one to beat now stepping up in trip. Mantoog rates next best, ahead of Jeff Koons.
