9/1

Smart for Ismail Mohammed in his prime but off for 21 months and changed hands for only 3,000 gns this autumn. A potential cut above at this level but the betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations.

Forecasts

Autocrat (7/4), Rhythm And Tyne (10/3), Rockview Consort (6/1), God Of Thunder (15/2), A Daughtersdelight (8/1), Away He Goes (9/1), Timourid (10/1), Chicago Storm (11/1), Imadpour (16/1), Infatuator (40/1), There's No Limit (80/1), Darkened (100/1), Tasmanian Girl (150/1), Carrickfinn (150/1)

Denis Hogan holds the key to this race. GOD OF THUNDER, who was pretty useful on AW for Richard Hannon, is the mount of Joey Sheridan from the yard's trio and is preferred to Timourid. Rhythm And Tyne was successful twice at this venue at a similar time last year and would enter the reckoning if the betting suggests he's expected to stage a revival back on AW. The other Hogan runner Away He Goes would pick up and carry these at his best but he hasn't been seen for 21 months.
