Forecasts

Double Kodiac (5/2), Motafaawit (11/4), Awe (3/1), Indomitable (4/1), Celebrity Dancer (5/1), James Street (6/1), Aim Power (6/1), Deep Intrigue (8/1), Dirty Rascal (8/1)

Verdict

Impossible to definitively dismiss any of the seven-declared runners, although one could consider that this is a difficult assignment for the returning Celebrity Dancer. Motafaawit was back with a bang at Beverley (displayed a sharp turn of foot), but his task is made more tricky with a subsequent 7lb rise in the weights on a much softer racing surface. Awe looks to have plenty more too offer moving forward into his three-year-old season and merits consideration, but the preferred option is the soft-ground proven DOUBLE KODIAC who recorded a career best at Newmarket (7f) and should once more have the measure of Dirty Rascal.
  1. Double Kodiac
  2. Awe
  3. Motafaawit
