Forecasts

Hussar Ballad (3/1), The Way You Dance (7/2), Hayward Field (17/2), Innish Man (17/2), Captain Swift (9/1), Frozon (10/1), Singular Quest (10/1), Gold Merlion (12/1), Simply Clever (16/1), Mr Frankie (20/1), Almutamarred (20/1), Life Of Luxury (25/1)

Verdict

If Hussar Ballad could be trusted to put it all in again, he'd look the natural selection here but he'd never followed up a win with another, and that's a concern. Singular Quest needs a look in the market as support would make him interesting, but a chance is taken on INNISH MAN being fit enough to do himself justice after his layoff as the handicapper has given him a chance if he is.
  1. Innish Man
  2. Singular Quest
  3. Hussar Ballad
