Forecasts

Ouzo (3/1), Metal Merchant (9/2), Island Bandit (6/1), What's The Story (7/1), Orbaan (8/1), Acotango (9/1), Indemnify (10/1), Alrehb (12/1), Shimmering Sands (12/1), Austrian Theory (18/1), Bluelight Bay (25/1), Justice Protecol (50/1)

Verdict

OUZO is reliable and his mark is unchanged from when he finished an excellent second over C&D in June, so he's the marginal vote to go one better in an open race. What's The Story is lightly raced for his current stable and is going through a good spell, so he's regarded as the main danger, although Alrehb is handicapped to win if he can match his AW form.

  1. OUZO
  2. WHAT'S THE STORY
  3. ALREHB (USA)
