Forecasts

Cogitate (3/1), Philanthropist (4/1), Brave Emperor (9/2), Borgi (13/2), Brasil Power (7/1), Rey De La Batalla (10/1), Uniting (18/1), Notimeforchitchat (18/1), Silca Bay (22/1), Almekarem (22/1), Tempus (80/1)

Verdict

PHILANTHROPIST has built a solid profile on the all-weather and should remain competitive after a creditable fourth at this course last month, where he made late headway after being held up. Cogitate confirmed his return to form when finishing fourth here last week and with a previous neck second at this C&D, is feared most. Borgi has been running consistently well, finishing third over C&D seven days ago.
