Forecasts

Vosne Romanee (6/4), Royal Plaza (5/2), Mercian King (3/1), Pearls Legend (3/1), Oliver's Hill (7/1)

A tricky contest despite the low numbers. You can make a case of sorts for all of them. Recent winners Pearls Legend and Royal Plaza are both very much respected and are bang in-form. VOSNE ROMANEE is taken to win a tight contest having not been in love with soft ground when last seen, the previous C&D winner will relish this return to quick ground and can get back to winning ways.
