Forecasts

Pablo Escobarr (4/9), Critical Data (11/2), Drogon (7/1), Kuwait Currency (7/1), Hot Team (16/1), Triple Distilled (20/1), Melissa (66/1)

PABLO ESCOBARR had Drogon behind when the pair started out in a similar event over track and trip last month, and while the latter looks open to significant improvement, Mark Johnston's well-bred colt is also likely to progress, and shades the verdict. Critical Data has a penalty to contend with, but won easily at Lingfield, and won't go down without a fight.
