Forecasts

Baldomero (11/4), Tolstoy (7/2), Lequinto (6/1), Laheg (13/2), Aberama Gold (17/2), Tyger Bay (17/2), Crimson Sand (11/1), Cuban Breeze (12/1), Embour (20/1), Dora Penny (22/1), Jack's Point (33/1), Count Otto (40/1)

A competitive-looking contest, with preference for BALDOMERO, who can build on his runner-up effort here a week ago and return to winning ways. The 5-y-o should be suited by a strong pace dropping back to 6f, so he is taken to see off the challenge of 3-time C&D winner Tyger Bay, while Laheg can also give another good account.
