Forecasts

Brice Canyon (15/8), Clonusker (4/1), Remember Forever (6/1), Carqalin (9/1), Goonjim (10/1), Jappeloup (10/1), Katarrhini (12/1), Frank N Fair (20/1), Quarryman (25/1)

Verdict

The in-form CLONUSKER can confirm his superiority over Brice Canyon despite facing a stiffer task at the weights this time around. He will be suited by the trip and notable that his jockey takes a handy 3lb off his back with his claim. Likely to be available at longer odds, Goonjim has been well backed on a couple of occasions recently and is open to improvement now he switches for fences. Quarryman is taken as the best best of the rest.
