Forecasts

Jaitroplaclasse (11/4), Palawan Du Mazet (7/2), Storming Nelson (7/2), Nedzor (5/1), Falco Des Pins (15/2), Just Aidan (11/1), Holy Legend (16/1), Joker Jack (40/1)

Verdict

The form of last season's renewal of this race is working out well and PALAWAN DU MAZET, who was first past the post that day, is appealing off 2 lb lower this time round with last month's C&D reappearance spin under his belt. Nedzor has found just one too good on each of his two starts in this sphere and he is feared most ahead of Jaitroplaclasse.

  1. PALAWAN DU MAZET (FR)
  2. NEDZOR (IRE)
  3. JAITROPLACLASSE (FR)
