Forecasts

Teahupoo (8/15), Quilixios (11/4), Slip Of The Tongue (11/2), In From The Cold (40/1), Varna Gold (125/1), Rose Of Borris (250/1)

Verdict

TEAHUPOO meets Quilixios on 2 lb worse terms than when the pair met at Naas in November, yet the former was a ready 12-length winner on that occasion and may well be up to confirming the placings here. Slip of The Tongue remains with plenty of untapped potential and shouldn't be dismissed lightly either.

  1. TEAHUPOO (FR)
  2. QUILIXIOS
  3. SLIP OF THE TONGUE (IRE)
