Forecasts
Gennady (5/2), Paris Protocol (9/2), Think Ahead (6/1), Monfass (10/1), Sarvi (10/1), Christmas In Usa (10/1), Titus Bolt (12/1), Dieu Benisse (14/1), The Herds Garden (14/1), Deepsand (16/1), Lough Legend (20/1), Keep The River (25/1), Blooriedotcom (25/1), Western Lass (33/1), Fourth Of July (40/1), Mercer's Troop (50/1)
A tough handicap to call. Christmas In Usa could go close again if fully wound up after a summer break, while Titus Bolt is interesting back on a winning mark on his stable debut. Blooriedotcom can't be ruled out, along with Think Ahead and The Herds Garden. Paris Protocol was a decisive winner last time and is another for shortlists, but the suggestion is DIEU BENISSE, who may just have needed her reappearance, and can take advantage of a 2lb drop to score.
- Dieu Benisse
- Paris Protocol
- Think Ahead
