Forecasts

Royal Romeo (15/8), Riaan (2/1), Gold Cup Bailly (7/2), Carrig Rock (6/1), Misty's Gift (15/2), Rodney Bay (15/2), A Million Bucks (14/1), Ferdinand Star (14/1), Dunleer Phoenix (14/1), Dlauro (22/1), Hidalgo Des Mottes (50/1), Captain Lightfoot (66/1), Leading Flame (100/1), Clandara (125/1), Gold Haven (150/1), Use Your Illusion (250/1), Brock Beauty (250/1)

A trappy maiden in which a chance is taken on GOLD CUP BAILLY. Absent since finishing third over further at Carlisle 9 months ago, he had previously showed plenty in 2 starts earlier last year and it would come as no surprise to see him primed to go well on return. Royal Romeo, Riaan and Rodney Bay head up the dangers.
