Forecasts

Wait For Me (10/3), Bastien (9/2), Persian Delight (7/1), Boite (15/2), Saffron Wells (15/2), Protek Des Flos (10/1), Poker Play (10/1), Different Gravey (12/1), Padge (12/1), Kansas City Chief (14/1), Zero Grand (20/1)

Verdict

A competitive handicap in which the improving Bastien looks sure to make a bold show. However, he has climbed to a career-high mark and may be vulnerable to a couple of these in Boite and PERSIAN DELIGHT. The latter, a C&D winner, should be straighter for his recent reappearance run and is taken to get his head in front again. Wait For Me, Protek Des Flos and Poker Play have questions to answer, but one or more of them could easily bounce back for their leading stables.
  1. Persian Delight
  2. Bastien
  3. Boite
