Forecasts

Salamanca Lad (7/2), Monks Mead (9/2), New Statesman (13/2), Unreal Connection (7/1), Hello Cotai (15/2), Flag Carrier (9/1), Calm Waters (10/1), Commander Crouch (10/1), Never Mind Me (12/1), Ottoman Force (40/1)

Verdict

FLAG CARRIER's overall profile isn't wholly convincing but he is well handicapped and a visor had a positive effect when second last time, so he's worth a chance to go one better. Last-time-out winners Hello Cotai and Salamanca Lad both strike as feasible dangers.

  1. FLAG CARRIER (IRE)
  2. HELLO COTAI (IRE)
  3. SALAMANCA LAD (IRE)
