Forecasts

Escobedo (5/4), Fae The Port (6/4), Tara Iti (11/2), Mountrath (12/1), Drag Race (22/1), Undercover Agent (125/1)

A pretty uninspiring contest which can go the way of ESCOBEDO. Richard Hannon's charge was possibly stretched by the 1½m trip at Kempton 12 days ago and, dropped to this company for the first time, he's taken to get off the mark. Fae The Port heads the dangers with his reappearance under his belt, ahead of Tara Iti.
