Forecasts

Fearby (13/8), Armor (6/1), Nymphadora (6/1), Chipotle (17/2), Boonie (9/1), Chimgan (11/1), Kaboo (12/1), Mojomaker (16/1), Swayze (25/1), Kingboard Star (40/1), Arboy Will (50/1)

Verdict

FEARBY sets the bar pretty high and there could be even more to come so he's the one to beat for in-form Ed Bethell. Softish ground would be a slight concern for Chipotle so it could be that the main threat comes from a couple who were behind Eve Johnston Houghton's charge in the Windsor Castle, namely Armor and Boonie.

  1. FEARBY (IRE)
