Forecasts

Av A Word (11/4), Oh It's Saucepot (11/4), Maraakib (4/1), Retribution (6/1), Epsom Secret (13/2), Bayston Hill (8/1), Squire (8/1), The Gay Cavalier (9/1), Pink Ribbon (10/1), Galinthias (10/1), Royal Hall (25/1)

Verdict

Av A Word is entitled to plenty of respect as he tends to do enough to win and could therefore be capable of defying another 4lb rise, while Retribution is not one to write off despite being beaten when fancied last time. However, OH IT'S SAUCEPOT is in cracking form and Chris Wall's filly should be able to find a bit more improvement for this extra furlong and defy another 4lb rise to complete her hat-trick.
  1. Oh It's Saucepot
  2. Av A Word
  3. Retribution
