Forecasts

Tashkhan (3/1), Baez (7/2), Emiyn (9/2), Yorkindness (7/1), It's Good To Laugh (7/1), Zealandia (15/2), The Grand Visir (16/1), Pons Aelius (20/1), Earlofthecotswolds (40/1)

Verdict

Plenty of these arrive with claims and it could just pay to take a chance on ZEALANDIA. Unexposed at this sort of trip, he's gradually worked his way back to form, getting off the mark for the campaign at Goodwood and a 4 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent him going well again. Tashkhan faces his easiest assignment for a while and he shouldn't be underestimated, with Baez and last year's winner Emiyn others in the mix.

  1. ZEALANDIA (FR)
  2. TASHKHAN (IRE)
  3. BAEZ
