Forecasts

Hell Yeah He Did (5/6), Lopeo (11/4), Sayedaati Saadati (13/2), Galilean Quality (15/2), Starship Trooper (20/1)

Verdict

HELL YEAH HE DID pulled clear of the rest when chasing home an odds-on shot in a soft-ground Salisbury novice and, with this step up in trip likely to serve him well, he is taken to see off Goodwood winner Lopeo, who may also have more to offer now faced with a stiffer test. The other three all need to take significant steps forward, with Galilean Quality perhaps the pick of them.

  1. HELL YEAH HE DID (FR)
  2. LOPEO (IRE)
  3. GALILEAN QUALITY (IRE)
