Forecasts

Special Rate (8/13), Giovinco (8/13), Imperial Merlin (5/4)

Verdict

GIOVINCO possibly found the race coming too soon in the Grade 1 Kauto Star on Boxing Day, 18 days on from his good effort behind Stay Away Fay at Sandown, so he can bounce back to winning ways if taking up this engagement. Special Rate looks the biggest threat as he bids for a seventh win of the season, though Imperial Merlin could take a step forward from his chase debut.

  1. GIOVINCO (IRE)
  2. SPECIAL RATE (IRE)
  3. IMPERIAL MERLIN (IRE)
