Forecasts

I Still Have Faith (7/2), Eton Blue (11/2), Alazwar (8/1), Piecederesistance (9/1), Give It Some Teddy (9/1), Orchestra (12/1), Le Reveur (14/1), Lenny's Spirit (14/1), Sagano (14/1), Crown Princess (18/1), Voltaic (18/1), Gert Lush (18/1), Maplewood (20/1), Super Den (25/1), Billy Roberts (33/1)

Verdict

ETON BLUE was suited by the way the race developed at Brighton last time, but there's no escaping he's in the form of his life at present, so gets the nod to bring up the hat-trick. Alazwar hasn't been firing of late but is down to a good mark, so it would be folly to rule him out, while veteran Billy Roberts shaped best on his most recent outing at Ripon and is another to consider.

  1. ETON BLUE (IRE)
