Betting Forecast

20/1 Sweet Reward, 6/1 Law Court, 9/2 Dark Whisper, 5/2 Interstate, 20/1 Military Air, 100/30 Empirical, 10/1 Due To Henry, 16/1 Double Red, 8/1 Lucky Luna

Verdict

Interstate and Empirical bring solid claims but DARK WHISPER should find this more manageable than the hot Goodwood handicap he contested seven weeks ago and he still has plenty of improvement in him after just four starts.[Paul Smith]
