Forecasts
Elarqam (1/1), Plumatic (3/1), South Seas (8/1), Zonderland (9/1), Oh This Is Us (12/1), Hathal (14/1)
There's a suspicion the return to the mile should see ELARQAM to best effect and he should appreciate another drop in class here after a respectable effort in a Group 2 at York last time. South Seas shouldn't be ruled out after some eye-catching efforts in handicap company and the gelding won in Group 3 class at Sandown last year. Plumatic could be the main danger and Andre Fabre wouldn't send one over for this without thinking his colt could run a big race.
