Forecasts

Law Court (2/1), Empirical (9/4), Interstate (3/1), Due To Henry (11/1), Sweet Reward (11/1), Dark Whisper (12/1), Double Red (14/1), Lucky Luna (22/1), Military Air (80/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for a few of these but EMPIRICAL's form is on an upward curve and he is fancied to resume winning ways after finding only one too good over C&D last time. Interstate remains with few miles on the clock and rates the chief threat on the back of a breakthrough novice success at Newcastle, while Law Court is weighted to go well if shrugging off a lesser effort at Ascot.

  1. EMPIRICAL (IRE)
  2. INTERSTATE
  3. LAW COURT (IRE)
