Forecasts

Defence Witness (4/1), Bayonetta (6/1), Unspeakable (7/1), Dalileo (17/2), Bullion Boss (9/1), Solway Molly (10/1), Nowinittowinit (11/1), Western Run (12/1), Starlyte (12/1), Pammi (14/1), Diamond State (16/1), Pateen (18/1), She's A Rocca (20/1), Iturgeon Du Breuil (28/1), Jake Stevens (28/1), Western Glen (33/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for lots of these but Christian Williams' UNSPEAKABLE shaped well when runner-up at Ffos Las on his return and can bounce back to winning ways reverted to hurdles off the same mark. Nicky Richards' duo She's A Rocca and Bullion Boss both bring solid credentials to the table and can chase home the selection in that order. Handily-weighted Defence Witness completes the shortlist.

  1. UNSPEAKABLE (IRE)
  2. SHE'S A ROCCA (IRE)
  3. BULLION BOSS (IRE)
