Forecasts

Monbeg Genius (5/4), First Lord De Cuet (3/1), Bellatrixsa (4/1), Coconut Splash (4/1), Skandiburg (7/1), Lord Of Kerak (12/1)

Verdict

MONBEG GENIUS left his chasing debut effort well behind when getting off the mark at Newcastle last month, and with further progress on the cards, he can make light of a 5 lb higher mark and follow up. First Lord de Cuet shaped as if as good as ever when runner-up returning from a lengthy absence recently so David Pipe's charge can give the selection most to think about, ahead of chasing-debutante Bellatrixsa.

  1. MONBEG GENIUS (IRE)
  2. FIRST LORD DE CUET (FR)
  3. BELLATRIXSA (IRE)
