Forecasts

At Poets Cross (7/4), Finest View (5/2), Extraordinary Man (11/2), Spacesuit (7/1), Highland Parc (9/1), King Carlos (20/1), Stratton Oakmont (22/1), Highland Light (22/1), Kingmon's Boy (40/1), Lohans Cross (50/1), Sixties Hero (125/1), Worth Knowing (200/1)

Verdict

AT POETS CROSS gets the nod to make a winning start for the Nicky Henderson team, with confidence increased should the betting speak in his favour. Finest View is another interesting newcomer, while the best of those with experience may be Highland Parc if he can recapture the form he showed when runner-up at Newbury on his penultimate start.

  1. AT POETS CROSS (IRE)
  2. FINEST VIEW
  3. HIGHLAND PARC (IRE)
