Forecasts

Celestial Spheres (6/4), Intrepidly (11/4), Cosmeapolitan (9/2), Grand Inquisitor (12/1), Ming Dynasty (12/1), Sam Missile (12/1), High Secret (20/1), Echo Brava (100/1)

Verdict

A trappy middle-distance handicap in which Intrepidly and Cosmeapolitan renew rivalry after finishing fourth and fifth over 1m2f last time. There should be little between them again, while the likes of Ming Dynasty, Sam Missile and Grand Inquisitor will also have their supporters. Preference, though, is for CELESTIAL SPHERES, who won over C&D last time and has every chance off 4lb higher for his in-form stable.
  1. Celestial Spheres
  2. Grand Inquisitor
  3. Intrepidly
