Forecasts

Astapor (5/2), Golden Gal (10/3), Aconcagua Mountain (7/2), Birdie Bowers (8/1), Dream Deal (17/2), The Grey Lass (9/1), Hot Scoop (10/1), Pacopash (150/1)

Verdict

ACONCAGUA MOUNTAIN should be all the better for his recent Hamilton reappearance fifth and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark at the chief expense of in-form C&D scorer Golden Gal. Fellow C&D winner Astapor can also have a say.

  1. Aconcagua Mountain7/2
  2. Golden Gal10/3
  3. Astapor5/2
