Forecasts

Archimento (15/8), Amuletum (11/4), Esspeegee (5/1), Iballisticvin (5/1), Amanto (7/1), American History (7/1), Roy Rocket (17/2), Becca Campbell (9/1)

Six of these have won around here (three have also won over C&D) but it’s one who has no course form who makes the most appeal in the unexposed AMULETUM who showed last time that she has plenty to give over this trip. Esspeegee has been in prolific form but has now to overcome a career-high mark although his course form will stand him in good stead. Archimnento can’t be ignored after his recent victory here with the trip expected to suit. Amanto looks to need a greater test than he’ll get here and it’s hard to know what to make of course specialist Roy Rocket who has been well below-par since his last win here.
