Forecasts

Dresden (5/2), Un Prophete (5/2), Cracking Find (11/2), Workbench (13/2), Vengeur De Guye (9/1), Ink Master (12/1), Discoverie (28/1)

A good race in prospect and one where it could pay to side with DRESDEN, whose 5lb drop has prompted a drop in grade here, while the return to this trip on soft ground could help work the oracle. Un Prophete is feared in opposition on the back of a win last time and he has claims after going up 5lb. You would have to be concerned about soft ground for Inkmaster and also Workbench, though both has the ability to win this is they can handle it better than previously, while a positive ride would make Cracking Find a potential player. Vengeur De Guye needs a bit of improvement, but he is not dismissed now back on softer ground.
