Forecasts

Locked N' Loaded (4/1), Ulshaw Bridge (9/2), Garden Oasis (5/1), Dawn Breaking (11/2), Destroyer (8/1), Little Ted (10/1), Dancin Boy (10/1), Twin Appeal (11/1), Striding Edge (20/1), Helovaplan (25/1), Hammer Gun (25/1), Saisons D'Or (28/1), Smeaton (33/1), Irv (33/1), Alfred Richardson (40/1)

Verdict

LITTLE TED was 10 lengths behind Striding Edge over C&D in July, but he didn't enjoy the best of runs that day and, moreover, meets that rival on 9 lb better terms now. He again shaped better than the bare result last time and looks the most solid option. Stablemate Garden Oasis, Dawn Breaking and Destroyer all merit respect, but Locked N' Loaded appears to be more at home on artificial surfaces.

  3. DAWN BREAKING
