Forecasts

Charbel (6/5), Politologue (5/2), San Benedeto (4/1), Forest Bihan (6/1), Colla Pier (33/1)

Verdict

Not the deepest of contests and CHARBEL could well find this a suitable test with a likely easy lead on a flatter track. Forest Bihan needs to improve his jumping and the fences here will provide him with another stiff test and that may well allow Politologue who should be suited by the flatter track and shorter trip to be the main opposition to Charbel. San Benedeto has been on the upgrade of late but he faces a rise in class here and he’s often flattered to deceive with his finishing effort.
