Forecasts

Two Auld Pals (11/8), Golden Shot (9/4), Glasses Up (11/2), Ghadbbaan (10/1), Lednikov (11/1), Excelcius (25/1), Ebony Maw (33/1), Go Bob Go (66/1), Kondo Isami (100/1)

Verdict

A 9-month absence for GOLDEN SHOT isn't too big a concern given he won after a similar layoff last year and he should have too much for his more exposed rivals. Two Auld Pals has had a good spell lately and is second choice ahead of Ghadbbaan.
