Forecasts

Try The Money (9/4), Amalfi Bay (11/4), Johannes (10/3), Double Powerful (4/1), Konigin Isabella (4/1), Dance Havana (13/2), Tik Tok (9/1), Champagne Gift (10/1), Zufal (40/1)

Verdict

JOHANNES has been well held on all 3 starts over hurdles to date but, given he's a fair 2m winner on the Flat, it's reasonable to assume he can do much better now tackling a longer trip on handicap debut. Dance Havana and Amalfi Bay are other interesting handicap debutants, and they are feared most.

  1. JOHANNES (FR)
  2. DANCE HAVANA
  3. AMALFI BAY
