Forecasts

Grand Albert (6/5), Haiti Couleurs (2/1), Heros De Romay (10/3), Illico De Cotte (5/1), Galassian (13/2), Industrialist (66/1), Record High (80/1), Top Kap (100/1)

Verdict

GRAND ALBERT should go on improving now that his stamina is drawn out, so there's every reason to believe he can defy a penalty. Fellow last-time-out scorer Haiti Couleurs is much respected with some of his earlier form reading well in the context of this race. Galassian hasn't been seen for 18 months but reappears with his yard in good form and also needs considering.

  1. GRAND ALBERT (IRE)
  2. HAITI COULEURS (FR)
  3. GALASSIAN
