Forecasts

Godwinson (7/4), Talis Evolvere (9/2), Metal Merchant (6/1), Sonny Liston (10/1), Aalto (11/1), Slipofthepen (14/1), Terwada (14/1), Biggles (14/1), Two Tempting (20/1), Tempus (25/1), Stephensons Rocket (40/1), Autumn Festival (50/1)

Verdict

It was ultimately residual greenness that got the better of GODWINSON when second to Metal Merchant in the C&D Spring Cup and, likely to be both sharper and a little more street-wise this time, he is taken to reverse those placings. Metal Merchant should be in the mix once more and, provided he is raring to go following a break, Sonny Liston will also be a threat. Talis Evolvere was third in the Spring Cup and again has each-way claims, while Slipofthepen remains of interest.

  1. GODWINSON
  2. METAL MERCHANT (IRE)
  3. SONNY LISTON (IRE)
