Forecasts

Big Leader (6/4), Treble Tee (9/4), Botanical (4/1), Hi Royal (11/2), La Trinidad (15/2), Barley (15/2)

Verdict

The votes goes to BOTANICAL, who is now 1 lb below the mark off which he was a solid second in the John Smith's Cup at York last summer and this drop back in trip looks a good move judged on his latest effort at Epsom. The unbeaten Big Leader is an unknown quantity and he has to be feared, while Barley has been knocking on the door of late and he is third choice.

  1. BOTANICAL (IRE)
  2. BIG LEADER (IRE)
  3. BARLEY (IRE)
