Forecasts

Welcome Ben (9/4), Chain Of Beacons (9/2), Vengeur De Guye (5/1), Azert De Coeur (5/1), Fair Loch (8/1), Trust Thomas (10/1), Tomorrow's Legend (11/1), Full Shift (16/1)

Verdict

Welcome Ben has enjoyed a good year and he should again be on the premises here, though the handicapper might just have the edge for now. Chain Of Beacons is another with claims, while Trust Thomas could be the fly in the ointment from a handy mark if he is back on good terms with himself. Check the market regarding both Azert De Coeur and Tomorrow's Legend, while neither Venguer De Guye nor Full Shift can be ruled out. However, preference is for FAIR LOCH, who will strip fitter for his recent Wetherby return and today could be his day.
  1. Fair Loch
  2. Welcome Ben
  3. Chain Of Beacons
