Forecasts

Operation Gimcrack (10/3), Overlooked (7/2), Woodrafff (7/2), Fistral Beach (6/1), Up The Monk (13/2), Cuban Fiesta (7/1), Dark Dreamer (18/1), My Boy Jack (22/1), Outrace (28/1), Lady Margret (66/1), Barney's Bay (100/1)

Verdict

OVERLOOKED has been consistent since cheekpieces went on and could prove the answer if new headgear (blinkers) gives him just a little bit more. Second choice is Operation Gimcrack who was better than the result on AW last time and went close off 3 lb higher last summer. Up The Monk and Woodrafff are others who could have a say.

  1. OVERLOOKED (IRE)
  2. OPERATION GIMCRACK (IRE)
  3. UP THE MONK
