Forecasts

Helvic Dream (4/6), Coeur Sublime (7/4), Lord Erskine (4/1), Sugaree (13/2), Cafe Con Leche (20/1), Kottayam (50/1), Applejack Poet (100/1), Ally Cay (150/1), Wayne R Walker (200/1), Balaclava (300/1), Encore De Mer (300/1), Power To Love (300/1)

Verdict

This looks an excellent opportunity for HELVIC DREAM to land a first success since the 2021 Tattersalls Gold Cup. Classy chaser Coeur Sublime showed he's also useful on the Flat when scoring at Listowel last month and can follow the selection home.
