Forecasts

Jungle Cat (8/13), Ibn Malik (7/4), Crazy Horse (10/3), Kool Kompany (9/2), That Is The Spirit (8/1), Start Time (10/1), Lavetta (25/1)

Although he has yet to win over this far, JUNGLE CAT looks the most solid option going into this. Ideally he wants a bit of rain to help him, but that is forecast, and he has only just been held twice over this far. He looks to have better credentials than most. Kool Kompany should be better for the drop back to this trip and he won't mind what the conditions are, so should be very competitive, while Crazy Horse could be the fly in the ointment if being gelded helps him return to his progressive form of last year. Ibn Malik and That Is The Spirit are likely to be next in the pecking order.
