Forecasts

King Leonidas (9/4), Monarch Of Egypt (4/1), Celestin (9/2), Molatham (11/2), Final Song (8/1), Repartee (14/1), Mystery Power (18/1), Ropey Guest (33/1), Lord Of The Lodge (33/1), Symbolize (40/1), King Of Athens (40/1), Fleeting Prince (50/1), Above (66/1), Mister Snowdon (66/1), Ventura Lightning (80/1)

Verdict

A bit of rain would probably enhance CELESTIN's chance but good ground is probably fine, and the drop back to 7f looks a smart move after seemingly not quite getting home in the Poule D'Essai Des Poulains. He can come out on top at the expense of Molatham, another for whom this trip is probably ideal and Jim Crowley could continue a great week. King Leonidas faces his stiffest task to date but at this stage, is open to any amount of improvement. Monarch Of Egypt makes a quick reappearance and isn't discounted, and for those wanting something at a huge price each-way, Ropey Guest will strain every sinew for you.
  1. Celestin
  2. Molatham
  3. King Leonidas
