Forecasts

Mont Des Avaloirs (11/2), Clondaw Castle (7/1), San Benedeto (7/1), Secret Investor (7/1), Bennys King (8/1), Drumcliff (10/1), Domaine De L'Isle (10/1), Enrichissant (10/1), Gala Ball (12/1), Bags Groove (12/1), Not Another Muddle (12/1), Valdez (16/1), Tiquer (16/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken here despite the layoff on classy novice BAGS GROOVE who was a graded-level performer as a novice and he could just have too much class here if arriving at somewhere near his best first time out. There are a host of these who may not appreciate underfoot conditions but Bennys King definitely will and he ran very well on desperate ground at Ascot latest. Also on the shortlist are the Nicholls trio with Mont Des Avaloirs the preferred due to the ground.
  1. Bags Groove
  2. Bennys King
  3. Mont Des Avaloirs
