Forecasts

Beltane (8/13), Monsieur Jumbo (5/2), Magnolia State (13/2), Miss Calculation (7/1), The Gay Blade (25/1), City Vaults (40/1), Hollis Brown (150/1)

Verdict

BELTANE is the form pick and arrives on the back of a creditable run, so he should prove hard to pass under a customary positive ride. Monsieur Jumbo, though not the most straightforward, is the clear danger, while The Gay Blade is worth monitoring in the betting on debut.

  1. BELTANE (IRE)
  2. MONSIEUR JUMBO (FR)
  3. THE GAY BLADE
