Forecasts

Magical Effect (7/4), Dark Profit (7/2), Thomas Cranmer (4/1), Sakhee's Return (8/1), Roaring Forties (9/1), Royal Connoisseur (14/1), Jabbaar (14/1)

Verdict

Thomas Cranmer clearly carries risks on recent evidence, though the return here could spark a revival and a better effort would not surprise from what is a good mark. Roaring Forties is entitled to plenty of respect, while Sakhee's Return could get competitive but did not have much to spare when winning last time. The suggestion, therefore, is MAGICAL EFFECT, who is unexposed over this trip and has conditions to suit.
  1. Magical Effect
  2. Thomas Cranmer
  3. Roaring Forties
