Forecasts

Top Moon (3/1), Fauguernon (7/2), Morosini (5/1), Owenacurra Lass (5/1), Line Out (11/2), Allez Kal (10/1), Mr Smith (16/1), Drifting Back (22/1), Coral Blue (28/1)

Verdict

This probably lies between Fauguernon, who is interesting on his handicap debut and should be thereabouts, and TOP MOON, for whom this trip looks likely to elicit improvement, and the latter is preferred this time. Morosini is another who could come into it, while Mr Smith has to be respected.
