Forecasts

Shimla Dawn (2/1), Galway Jack (9/4), Shotavodka (11/4), O Maonlai (4/1), Royalraise (11/2), Argot (16/1), Bambi Du Noyer (40/1), Grouse Lodge (66/1), Noble Friend (100/1), Edeiff's Lad (150/1)

Shimla Dawn arrives in excellent form from between the flags and is very much respected going into this, though preference is for the veteran GALWAY JACK who is a thoroughly consistent performer who is also in good heart. Shotavodka and the enigmatic O Maonlai both have claims and Royalraise is not ruled out.
