Forecasts

Indalo (9/4), Tribal Chief (4/1), Beagle Bay (6/1), Hard Endeavor (7/1), Classic (7/1), Ebt's Guard (8/1), Cerulean Bay (8/1), River King (10/1), Sea Force (12/1), Excellent Believe (14/1), Liberty Lane (18/1), Mirsky (20/1), City Of Poets (25/1), Bourbon Blues (25/1), Ozat (25/1), Popmaster (50/1), Balmacara (50/1)

Verdict

TRIBAL CHIEF has been third in a pair of top-end handicaps from the same mark this year and the way he kept on from further back than ideal in the Victoria Cup last time suggests he can win one when things fall right. Similar comments apply to recent Royal Hunt Cup third Indalo and he's second choice ahead of Beagle Bay, who almost certainly has more to come on the back of last month's C&D success. The reliable Ebt's Guard and last year's winner Classic are others likely to have a say.

  1. TRIBAL CHIEF (FR)
  2. INDALO (IRE)
  3. BEAGLE BAY (FR)
