Forecasts

Seagulls Eleven (2/1), Royal Officer (3/1), Best Adventure (7/2), Aegean Sea (4/1), Castle Stuart (5/1), Hofburg (13/2), Green Storm (17/2), Claim To Glory (11/1), Kings College (12/1)

Verdict

The eye is immediately drawn to ROYAL OFFICER, who represents top connections and both his pedigree and price tag suggest that he will prove to an above-average newcomer. Seagulls Eleven is the clear pick of the trio with experience and he is feared, along with likely-looking types Aegean Sea and Best Adventure.

  1. ROYAL OFFICER (IRE)
  2. SEAGULLS ELEVEN (IRE)
  3. AEGEAN SEA (IRE)
