Forecasts

Boher Lad (2/1), Yukon Delta (11/4), Thepartysover (10/3), Dragoon Guard (4/1), Goodnight Charlie (5/1), Landscape (6/1), Burgess Dream (8/1), Ray Diamond (12/1), Saucysioux (25/1)

Verdict

Hard to totally rule out any of this field and it could be worth taking a chance with THEPARTYSOVER who has fallen a long way in the weights but hinted at a revival last time out. Boher Lad is off an increased mark but remains in good form and Goodnight Charlie showed a good attitude to win last time out and will relish this stamina test. Ray Diamond is another well handicapped sort on his old form and drops in class and the strong travelling but weak finishing Dragoon Guard might take a hand in the finish if he lasts out this trip.
