Forecasts

Wind Your Neck In (4/1), Arthur's Realm (4/1), Sly Madam (6/1), Chips And Rice (17/2), Mr Professor (9/1), Miss Bluebelle (10/1), Mostawaa (12/1), Junkanoo (14/1), Two Tempting (14/1), Miss Down Under (14/1), Lawn Ranger (20/1), One Step Beyond (28/1)

Verdict

Plenty with chances in an open finale. It's possible WIND YOUR NECK IN was simply unsuited by the AW surface at Newcastle last time so the handicapper may have taken a chance dropping him 3 lb as he's now 6 lb lower than when runner-up at Bath earlier in the year and he goes well with ease in the ground. Miss Bluebelle, Arthur's Realm and Chips And Rice head the many possible dangers.

  1. WIND YOUR NECK IN (IRE)
  2. MISS BLUEBELLE (IRE)
  3. ARTHUR'S REALM (IRE)
