Forecasts
Mr Caffrey (10/3), My King (7/2), Prince Mahler (4/1), Zephyr (11/2), John Biscuit (8/1), Comical Red (11/1), Dropzone (14/1), Baldadash (16/1)
Prince Mahler and Mr Caffrey are closely matched on their meeting here last time, but neither have the sort of profile that would have you dashing to the rails to snap up a short price. Baldadash may do better here now going right handed under a professional rider but JOHN BISCUIT makes most appeal. He arrives here fresher than most having recently returned from a four month break. His stamina needs to be taken on trust but he has the best turn of foot in this if within striking range in the closing stages.
