Forecasts
Tarbat Ness (11/10), Reel Her In (2/1), Zephlyn (9/4), Quercus Robur (9/2), Man Of Riddles (12/1), Balkotic (20/1)
Most of these have stamina to prove over this marathon Flat trip but REEL HER IN promises to stay and back-to-back wins at Musselburgh in October read pretty well in the context of this. Zephlyn and Tarbat Ness have race fitness on their side, which can go a long way at this stage of the season, so they rate the main dangers.
