Forecasts

Whateys Quest (5/4), Brennus Lescribaa (9/4), Midweek Voices (3/1), Splendid Choice (12/1), Andyourbirdcansing (16/1), Volez Vous (66/1), Granco Rof (125/1)

Verdict

None of these are particularly solid and backing BRENNUS LESCRIBAA comes with risks attached after he bombed out when odds-on at Naas in December. He does represent a top yard, though, so is marginally preferred in favour of Whateys Quest and Splendid Choice, who starts out for a new yard.

  1. Brennus Lescribaa9/4
  2. Whateys Quest5/4
  3. Splendid Choice12/1
