Forecasts

The Caribbean (8/11), Ascendent (9/2), Duplantis (7/1), Imperial Magic (8/1), Prince X J (12/1), Jakajaro (20/1), Gibbs Island (22/1), Hispanolita (50/1), Dont Do Dramas (200/1)

It will look significant if IMPERIAL MAGIC is strong in the betting. Indeed, the Showcasing colt fetched €200,000 when resold as a yearling and an entry in the Group 2 Railway Stakes suggests that he's be showing the right signs at home. The Caribbean can be expected to build on his debut effort at York and he is feared most ahead of newcomers Duplantis and Ascendent.
