Forecasts

Bonnie Arlene (2/1), Regal Mirage (5/2), Colour Contrast (4/1), Archibelle (10/1), Optima Petamus (10/1), Falcon's Fire (14/1), Mr Davies (14/1), Schmooze (28/1)

Verdict

If Falcon's Fire could return to the sort of form he was producing in the spring then he would have solid claims here, while Mr Davies might go well at a price now back on faster ground. Colour Contrast looks booked for another good effort, while Archibelle has to be taken seriously now back at this trip. However, stepped up in trip now, REGAL MIRAGE may well be able to defy both a penalty and a rise in grade to complete his hat-trick.
