Forecasts

Somerset Maugham (5/2), California Jumbo (3/1), Dawn Trouper (4/1), Subjudice (11/2), Winner Takes Itall (12/1), War Advocate (12/1), Khafaaq (20/1), With Herself (33/1), June Ann (33/1), Lady Kimberley (66/1)

Verdict

James Stack won this race last year and CALIFORNIA JUMBO shaped with enough promise last time out to be of interest. There's likely to be more to come given her pedigree and price tag and there's every chance he will improve for the faster ground here. Joseph O'Brien is another trainer who has enjoyed success in this and Winner Takes Itall makes some appeal on paper while Somerset Maugham is very well bred and while he's been a shade disappointing in two starts so far, better is expected here.
  1. California Jumbo
  2. Winner Takes Itall
  3. Somerset Maugham
