Forecasts

Semser (2/1), Kentucky Kingdom (7/2), Beautiful Crown (4/1), Jenson Benson (4/1), Star From Afarhh (6/1), Roscioli (25/1)

Verdict

KENTUCKY KINGDOM has gone close over this C&D the last twice and the 7-y-o is taken to notch a fourth success at this course. Second choice is Semser, who scored over this C&D off a 1 lb higher mark on his sole previous visit here last summer. Jenson Benson and Roscioli can do battle for minor honours.
