Forecasts

Election Day (7/2), Spinart (4/1), Mr Cool Cash (9/2), Mushaireb (8/1), Lamloom (9/1), Dandyleekie (12/1), Thaqaffa (12/1), Briyouni (12/1), Trinity Star (14/1), Echo Of Lightning (16/1), Pushaq (16/1), Carnival King (16/1)

Verdict

A wide open race on paper. Dandyleekie goes well here, as does Trinity Star and both have claims along with Mr Cool Cash and Election Day. Thaqaffa and Carnival King each has a squeak too, but ECHO OF LIGHTNING seemed well suited to this place when slamming his field on soft ground on his last visit and although 3lb higher, he should give a very good account.
  1. Echo Of Lightning
  2. Dandyleekie
  3. Thaqaffa
