Forecasts
Coastal Tiep (11/8), Reigning Supreme (7/4), Strong Pursuit (11/4), The Poodle Faker (100/1)
REIGNING SUPREME won over C&D here in November and he looked a classy sort that day. He can be forgiven one poor run in conditions that may have been too extreme last time and he's been given ample time to recover. Strong Pursuit will be a tough nut to crack from the front though and his rivals wouldn't want to give the Champion Jockey too much rope while Coastel Tiep has been impressive in his career to date but there has to be a slight concern over tackling softer ground again.
