Forecasts

Mordin (5/2), Fastar (7/2), Michele Strogoff (4/1), Majboor (9/2), Gurkha Friend (8/1), Custom Cut (12/1), High Acclaim (18/1), Knife Edge (20/1), De Bruyne Horse (25/1), Sands Chorus (50/1)

With Custom Cut, Gurkha Friend, Michele Strogoff and Majboor liking to make the pace this is likely to be a strong run race and the latter may be the best to fare having showed a game attitude and admirable consistency so far. The step up in grade and trip possibly came too soon for MORDIN and a fast run mile could play to his strengths. Likewise after a more encouraging run for his new trainer, De Bruyne Horse could have more to offer now upped in trip and is dangerously well handicapped on his smart juvenile form.
