Forecasts

Waldkonig (6/4), Highest Ground (5/2), Hukum (7/2), Thunderous (7/1), Extra Elusive (16/1), Desert Encounter (40/1), Winter Reprise (80/1)

A belting renewal of this Group 3, featuring a few who are likely to make their presence felt at the highest level in 2021. HIGHEST GROUND gets the nod to turn around last year's Dante form with Thunderous and provide Sir Michael Stoute with a fourth successive winner of the race. Hukum was a rapid improver last year and could be the one to give him most to do.
