Forecasts

Kakori (9/2), Master Garvey (13/2), Starting Monday (7/1), Goldrush Kid (8/1), Genuine Jim (8/1), Convincing (11/1), Simpson's Paradox (11/1), La Tulipe Noire (12/1), Timandi (12/1), Cordouan (12/1), Captain Ciano (14/1), Hexagonal (14/1), Merepark (16/1), Electric Beauty (20/1), Hell Left Loose (20/1), Mogwli (20/1), Lough Leane (25/1), Kilmood Susan (28/1), Tara Na Ri (28/1), Satono Chevalier (33/1), Rampage (33/1), Raybiya (33/1), Zabriskie Point (33/1), Arch Enemy (40/1), Your Out Of Line (40/1), Elman (50/1), Lady Mary Heath (66/1), Toy Soldier (80/1), Royal Alliance (80/1)

KAKORI finished well from too far back on her handicap debut last autumn and appeals as one who can win races for her leading stable this year. Goldrush Kid catches the eye having dipped to 2 lb lower than when successful in this last year. Like the selection, Tara Na Ri is a low-mileage 4-y-o who should have more to come in 2026. Convincing also makes the shortlist.
