Forecasts

Broadway Boy (9/4), Some Scope (13/2), Chasing Fire (7/1), The Short Go (9/1), Le Milos (9/1), Senior Chief (11/1), Does He Know (12/1), Pepe Le Moko (12/1), Vanillier (16/1), Unanswered Prayers (20/1), Kinondo Kwetu (20/1), Kansas City Star (28/1), Captain Morgs (28/1), Escaria Ten (100/1)

Verdict

PEPE LE MOKO has to prove his stamina over this longer trip but he returns on a fair mark and the likelihood is we haven't seen the best of him yet. He gets the nod. Broadway Boy has a fine record here and is feared most, whilst Some Scope and Senior Chief are also much respected.

  1. PEPE LE MOKO (FR)
  2. BROADWAY BOY (IRE)
  3. SOME SCOPE
