Forecasts

Alkopop (11/8), Call Off The Dogs (9/2), Kenny George (11/2), Mr Katanga (10/1), Fleur Du Pommier (14/1), Havacuppa (16/1), Just Henny (20/1), Kenyan Cowboy (22/1), Shutthegate (25/1), Shimba Hills (33/1), Unblinking (40/1), Kalarika (40/1), Tarks Hill (50/1), Gulshanigans (50/1), Gabrielle Du Seuil (66/1), Alka Step (66/1)

Verdict

MR KATANGA is a possible improver in handicaps for his good yard so gets a tentative vote. The unexposed Alkopop is much respected on the back of his Chepstow success over a similar trip last month. Kenny George and Call Off The Dogs are also on the shortlist.

  1. MR KATANGA (IRE)
  2. ALKOPOP (GER)
  3. KENNY GEORGE
