Forecasts

Sailing On (9/4), Military Tycoon (3/1), Royal Deeside (11/2), Enochdhu (9/1), Bodygroove (11/1), Ashtanga (12/1), Wilderness (12/1), African Star (14/1), Whitcombe Rockstar (28/1)

Verdict

Preference is for MILITARY TYCOON, who is on a workable mark and may have more to offer now granted a stiffer test of stamina. Sailing On and Royal Deeside are feared most.

  1. MILITARY TYCOON (IRE)
  2. SAILING ON
  3. ROYAL DEESIDE
