Forecasts

Kitaabaat (3/1), Big Challenge (9/2), The Pinto Kid (5/1), Lady Bergamot (5/1), Ulster (8/1), Manjaam (8/1), Berrahri (10/1), Machine Learner (14/1), Sporting Times (14/1), Hope Is High (33/1)

Verdict

Kitaabaat is highly respected after a good win in a match race at Doncaster last time and will be a potent threat to all if the longer trip isn't an issue. However, preference goes to LADY BERGAMOT as she is likely to have the strong tempo she needs and can make the most of what looks to be an attractive current handicap mark. Machine Learner has scope to improve and is one to keep tabs on in the betting, while Berrahri is another in-form rival who also warrants consideration. Similar applies to the well-bred Big Challenge, whose form is ordinary but he's still done enough to merit carrying topweight in this company; so is respected accordingly.
  1. Lady Bergamot
  2. Kitaabaat
  3. Machine Learner
