Forecasts

Electric Storm (10/3), Albasheer (10/3), Powerful Nation (7/2), Star Of Lady M (5/1), His Majesty (9/1), Lady With The Lamp (12/1), Valiant Force (14/1), Over The Blues (18/1), Tees Spirit (28/1), Seraphim Angel (33/1), Ostraka (66/1), Arnhem (100/1), Samrogue (100/1)

Verdict

ALBASHEER may have been unsuited by conditions at Newbury last time and he'd been in top form prior to that, so he gets the marginal vote over the likeable Star of Lady M. 2yo Powerful Nation is an interesting contender with more on the card.

  1. ALBASHEER (IRE)
  2. STAR OF LADY M
  3. POWERFUL NATION (IRE)
