Forecasts

Nuits St Georges (13/8), Baasem (15/8), Charlie D (10/3), Mondain (9/2), Sexy Beast (11/2)

Trainer Mark Johnston has taken both renewals of this event and he aims for the hat-trick with Mondain who was favoured by the scenario at Newcastle last time where he was allowed a fairly soft time up front and benefitted from a soft lead. That situation with Charlie D, whose last win over this trip on the Rowley Mile course was a defeat of 2018 winner (Star Of The East) and Sexy Beast in the field may not arise as both of those are better given prominent rides. NUITS ST GEORGES just edges the argument over Baasem here with the former still having some handicapping scope while the latter does look to be building up to something having performed well at Ascot on his return to action.
