Forecasts

Starmount (10/3), Le Beau Madrik (7/2), The Last Cloud (5/1), Montemares (5/1), Lord Byron (8/1), Kosac D'oudairies (8/1), The Blue Room (8/1), Gaelic Rover (10/1), Red Oak (16/1), West Hill Verde (33/1), Caballo De Guerra (33/1)

Verdict

STARMOUNT impressed when easily dispatching recent course scorer Kaka's Cousin at Wetherby last month and is narrowly preferred to Dan Skelton's Le Beau Madrik, who is 2-2 over hurdles. Lord Byron, the sole 4-y-o in the line-up, and Montemares have already shown they can hold their own in Graded company and may prove best of the remainder.

  1. STARMOUNT (IRE)
  2. LE BEAU MADRIK (FR)
  3. LORD BYRON (IRE)
