Forecasts

Hodler (3/1), Pearle D'or (7/2), Embrace (13/2), Spanish Star (13/2), Captain Cuddles (17/2), Razeyna (9/1), Ben Hamrash (9/1), Scholarship (11/1), Marshal Dan (33/1), Pumalin Park (40/1), Chelsea Square (50/1)

Verdict

A few with chances but PEARLE D'OR arrives at the top of his game and on a handy mark too so gets the vote at the chief expense of Captain Cuddles, who should prove suited by reverting to this trip. Spanish Star and Ben Hamrash are two others who warrant plenty of respect in this competitive handicap.

  1. PEARLE D'OR (IRE)
  2. CAPTAIN CUDDLES (IRE)
  3. SPANISH STAR (IRE)
