Forecasts

Mohawk King (2/9), Hemmsa (11/2), Magical Mile (6/1), Glinbury (11/1), Hackness Harry (14/1), Champagne Haza (18/1), Lisdarragh (20/1), Footstepsonthemoon (33/1), On Edge (80/1), Lhebayeb (150/1)

This may develop into a match between MOHAWK KING and Hemmsa, with preference for the former having not been disgraced in a pair of Group 2 events since his winning debut at Ascot in July. Hemmsa should give the selection plenty to think about having shaped better than the result in both starts to date, while any market confidence behind Glinbury may put a slightly different slant on things.
