Above Board (15/8), Ask The Weatherman (10/3), Wizards Bridge (6/1), You Say What (8/1), Castarnie (12/1), Swincombe Scorchio (12/1), Royal Palladium (14/1), Definitly Grey (16/1), I Am Colin (20/1), Only Gorgeous (33/1)

The outstanding point-to-pointer ASK THE WEATHERMAN gets the vote here despite a huge weight. He has won 10 of 12 career starts and could have been underestimated by the handicapper here. The lightly raced Above Board is an interesting runner and could easily prove well treated in his handicap debut also. Course specialist Only Gorgeous should run his usual good race but is vulnerable to less exposed sorts.
