Forecasts

Marty Mcfly (5/2), Maillot Blanc (3/1), Starlyte (7/2), Lucky Soldier (8/1), Gonfalonier (9/1), Santa Clarita (14/1), Looking Splendid (14/1), Luminaries (28/1), Le Fou's Keep (50/1), Watch Law (50/1), The Roc Hopper (80/1)

Verdict

MARTY MCLFY has to prove his stamina for this far but made a sound start for his new yard during the middle of 2024 and is taken to pick up where he left off. Starlyte must enter the reckoning on her runner-up effort over C&D recently with her mark unchanged, while the market will help assess Gonfalonier on his return from a long time off the track.

  1. MARTY MCFLY (IRE)
  2. STARLYTE (IRE)
  3. GONFALONIER (FR)
