Forecasts

Edwardtheninth (3/1), Lady Phoebe (7/2), Lillistar (18/5), Izakaya (9/2), Home And Dry (9/2), Royal Deeside (11/2), Different Drum (7/1), Charlie Darling (7/1), Achnamara (15/2), Capone (20/1), Lion City (33/1), Ebendi (50/1)

Preference is for LILLISTAR, who ran with credit on her last Flat outing and looks well worth a crack at this longer trip. Home And Dry, Izakaya and Edwardtheninth are feared most in a tricky-looking contest.
