Forecasts
Country (2/1), Sameem (9/2), Alternative Fact (6/1), Harrovian (7/1), Universal Gleam (8/1), Oasis Prince (9/1), Spiorad (14/1), Babbo's Boy (16/1), Thrave (16/1), El Ghazwani (16/1), Cosmeapolitan (50/1), Finniston Farm (125/1)
The ground has eased since declarations for this meeting, and that could have a significant effect on the outcome. SAMEEM won a Listed race on soft ground last season and looks in need of a return to this trip, so is taken to come out on top. Alternative Fact has the benefit of Silvestre de Sousa on his back, as when winning at Newmarket last back-end, and is feared, while Spiorad will handle conditions, and is probably worth another try at this trip having had excuses on his previous outing.
