Forecasts
Present Man (11/4), The Last Samuri (7/2), Tea For Two (9/2), Royal Vacation (6/1), Thomas Patrick (6/1), Vicente (13/2), Regal Flow (16/1)
Present Man and Thomas Patrick have the ability to win this but they need to be careful not to get into a front-running duel, or it will harm both of their chances. Tea For Two is arguably the class act of this field and might take some beating if over his King George exertions but THE LAST SAMURI stays all day long and the quicker they go up front, the happier he will be late on. A drop of rain would certainly be in his favour too. He's taken to grind them down late in the day.
