Forecasts

King Bavarian (9/4), Escapologist (7/2), Bad Medicine (11/2), Artic Silver (6/1), King Celtillus (6/1), Basie Raakvat (7/1), Richardthefearless (8/1), True Trojan (25/1)

Verdict

ESCAPOLOGIST left their previous effort behind on her latest start and will take all the beating. King Celtillus is a marginal preference for second, while King Bavarian shouldn't be ruled out.

  1. Escapologist7/2
  2. King Celtillus6/1
  3. King Bavarian9/4
