1/1

Smart horse. 6/1, good nose second of 8 to Sangarius in listed race at Lingfield (10f, AW) 23 days ago. Reproduction of that effort would give him every chance. Makes tapeta debut.

Forecasts

Bangkok (1/1), Sinjaari (85/40), Forest Of Dean (9/2), Felix (10/1)

An intriguing contest, despite the small field. SINJAARI has taken well to the all-weather, hitting the crossbar in listed events at Lingfield and Kempton. He is marginally preferred to Bangkok, who returned to form when failing by a whisker in the Quebec Stakes at Lingfield last month. This is by no means a two-horse race though, as Forest of Dean and Felix are both very talented, too.
