Forecasts

Golden Birthday (7/4), Mobbhij (7/2), Banish (5/1), St Malo (7/1), Fleeting Visit (10/1), Faithful Creek (14/1), Fair Power (16/1), Captain Peacock (20/1), Sennockian Star (25/1), Murgan (25/1), Panko (50/1), Viking Hoard (50/1), Belabour (66/1), Samtu (66/1)

Verdict

There should be more to come from MOBBHIJ, who drops in trip for only his third start but is likely to get the strong pace he needs. Golden Birthday is also going the right way now he's tried on the Flat and he can certainly ensure the rest have to up their game if he runs his usual race. Banish holds a few of these and should again be thereabouts. He's never won two races back-to-back though, and a bigger danger may be posed by St Malo, who returns at a reasonable level after sitting things out for most of the latter part of the summer.
  1. Mobbhij

  3. St Malo
