Forecasts

Hell Left Loose (9/4), Princess Sela (6/1), Coviglia (6/1), Bellick (7/1), Men Of Dreams (15/2), Cleveleys (8/1), Talking Tough (17/2), Salt Whistle Bay (10/1), Laakhof (10/1), Born Invincible (10/1), Rocket Carnival (12/1), Cactus Tree (12/1), Hands Down (22/1), Texas Rock (25/1), Dutch Schaefer (28/1), Manhattan Dandy (28/1), Vormir (50/1), Speedy Pix (50/1)

COVIGLIA quickly got back on track when a good second at Listowel under this rider and remains of interest on what is only his fourth start for this yard. Cleveleys and Salt Whistle Bay head the dangers.
