Forecasts

Al Khawaneej River (5/2), Percy Shelley (11/4), Calvert (3/1), Cock And Bull (4/1), Curran (5/1), Macari (9/1), Red Flyer (12/1), Moel Arthur (16/1), No More Bolero (80/1)

Verdict

AL KHAWANEEJ RIVER matched his reappearance form when second at Goodwood 6 weeks ago and remains of interest, particularly as he's still unexposed at the trip. Percy Shelley is yet to win in Britain but is knocking firmly on the door, with Curran also of interest having got back on track at Haydock last week.

  1. AL KHAWANEEJ RIVER (FR)
  2. PERCY SHELLEY
  3. CURRAN (IRE)
