Forecasts

Ecclesiastical (2/1), Big Gossey (7/2), Mrs Bouquet (13/2), Alfredo Arcano (7/1), Pulse Of Shanghai (8/1), Arcanears (8/1), Maggie Thunder (9/1), Red Cymbal (25/1), Indian Raj (66/1)

Verdict

ALFREDO ARCANO has been shaping as if worth another try at 5f so could be the answer off a tempting mark. This does look competitive with 4 last-time-out winners in opposition, headed by Ecclesiastical and Arcanears.

  1. ALFREDO ARCANO (IRE)
  2. ECCLESIASTICAL
  3. ARCANEARS (IRE)
