Forecasts

Chutzpal (1/2), Bayou Belle (5/1), Inchiquin Maid (7/1), Applejack Poet (16/1), Dream Once More (20/1), Hatfield Hammer (20/1), Duke Silver (22/1), Mr Macphisto (22/1), Get Down To It (25/1), Kartel And Co (25/1), Katherine (28/1), Fox Leicester (33/1), Ordered Lives (40/1), King In Love (50/1), Forgothekeys (125/1)

Verdict

Lots with chances but Joseph O'Brien's DUKE SILVER appeals as a likely improver now stepping into handicap company so edges the vote. Bayou Belle could emerge as the main danger on the back of her good recent second here, although Dream Once More and Mr Macphisto can also have a say. Get Down To It completes the shortlist.

  1. DUKE SILVER (IRE)
  2. BAYOU BELLE (IRE)
  3. DREAM ONCE MORE (IRE)
