Forecasts

Gaelic Warrior (6/4), El Fabiolo (3/1), Marine Nationale (9/2), Solness (6/1), Quilixios (10/1), Gentleman De Mee (40/1), Captain Guinness (40/1), Senecia (150/1)

Things didn't go right for EL FABIOLO after his impressive victory in this contest last year but he is undoubtedly top class on his day and looks value to make a winning return here. Gaelic Warrior may not be at his best at this course but rates the chief threat nonetheless, whilst Quilixios has been in good form this term and should also go well.
