Forecasts

Tommie Beau (10/3), Conflated (9/2), Sweet David (5/1), Mister Coffey (5/1), Slipway (13/2), Fameaftertheglory (17/2), Busselton (9/1), Back On The Lash (33/1), Statuario (33/1)

The fascinating contender here is CONFLATED. Twice placed in Grade 1s (including here) during the spring, Gordon Eliott's high-class chaser should be sharper for what was effectively his reappearance in the Charlie Hall 2 weeks ago and he's of interest provided he sees out the longer trip. Tommie Beau is a highly admirable sort and is feared ahead of returning pair Mister Coffey and Slipway.
