Forecasts

Dutch Uncle (3/1), House Of Commons (4/1), Pivotman (5/1), Marshgate Lane (6/1), Final (13/2), Toga Tiger (15/2), Spes Nostra (11/1), Freud (50/1)

Verdict

Toga Tiger is clearly in good form at present and should be heavily involved despite another 3lb rise, though SPES NOSTRA could be the one to side with. Admittedly, Iain Jardine's runners have not been winning much of late, though plenty have run to form and this course specialist has his best chance at the weights for some time. Pivotman will appreciate the return to this venue and can put up a better showing than last time out, and along with Dutch Uncle and Final he could be in the shake-up. 1. Spes Nostra 2. Toga Tiger 3. Dutch Uncle
