Forecasts

Toastmaster (2/1), French Affair (5/2), Flight Control (9/2), Harswell Angel (11/1), Gesayed (12/1), Vega Storm (14/1), Mighty Vega (18/1), Three Non Blondes (22/1), Cotai Eye Joe (22/1), Galileo Island (22/1), Watcha Snoop (33/1), Chale Chalo (40/1), Comprador (80/1)

Verdict

A competitive handicap which can go the way of TOASTMASTER, who has shaped well when third on both starts for current connections and goes from an unchanged mark here. French Affair was one place behind the selection over C&D last time and might prove the biggest threat again, whilst Vega Storm appeals as a potential improver on handicap debut.

  1. TOASTMASTER (IRE)
  2. FRENCH AFFAIR (IRE)
  3. VEGA STORM (IRE)
