Forecasts

Cap D'Antibes (11/4), Rivas Rob Roy (9/2), Compere (6/1), Mr Marvlos (15/2), Adace (17/2), Landing Strip (9/1), Voodoo Ray (11/1), Graffiti (12/1), Joli's Legacy (14/1), Queen Sarabi (16/1), Essme (25/1), Capla Knight (33/1), Laurentia (50/1)

RIVAS ROB ROY ran well here off the same mark earlier this month and gets the nod in a tricky-looking finale. Cap d'Antibes and Compere head the list of dangers.
