Forecasts

Vesuvio (9/4), Douglas Dragon (5/1), Mo Ment (5/1), To The Rescue (11/2), Star Coin (11/2), Romeo's Magic (8/1), Eiger Sanction (10/1), Arlington Action (14/1), Robert Browning (18/1)

Verdict

ARLINGTON ACTION has been hard to fault in recent outings and seems likely to take the beating. Eiger Sanction is likely to be waiting in the wings if the selection fails to deliver, while Vesuvio looks another that has to be reckoned with.

  1. Arlington Action14/1
  2. Eiger Sanction10/1
  3. Vesuvio9/4
