Forecasts

Magic Bear (11/4), Patuano (3/1), Ostatnia (11/2), Ice Cold In Alex (7/1), Patrick (7/1), Sahreej (10/1), Go Kart (10/1), Master Speaker (16/1)

The pace angle here may be left to Ostatnia, with Sahreej and Patrick in behind. Magic Bear, Patuano and Patrick should all be on the shortlist, while a chance is taken with each-way stakes on ICE COLD IN ALEX, second victory when winning over 5f, here at the end of last month, before sixth of 11, in Curragh 6f handicap, but drops back to 5f here.
