Forecasts

Boycie (7/2), Craftsmanship (5/1), Byres Road (5/1), King of Dreams (5/1), Aldeburgh (8/1), Mornington (9/1), Glenalmond (10/1), Archangel Raphael (10/1), Inniscastle Lad (11/1)

Verdict

Byres Road and Inniscastle Lad are two front runners who may set this up nicely for some of their rivals. CRAFTMANSHIP definitely comes into this category and he appeared to be coming to hand on the AW last time. He has been slow to come down the weights but has finally dropped to his last winning mark now and has conditions to suit. King Of Dreams and Archangel Raphael are others who will appreciate having something to aim at and both make some appeal at the weights. A bigger danger may come from Boycie who beat a big field at Doncaster two weeks ago. Richard Hannon's charge was trying this trip for the first time and took advantage of a good mark. The handicapper has had his say but he remains just 1lb above the mark from which he scored at Chepstow last season.
  1. Craftsmanship
  2. Boycie
  3. King of Dreams
