Forecasts

Potters Legend (9/4), Sir Mangan (9/2), Battle Of Shiloh (9/2), Actinpieces (5/1), Bigbadjohn (13/2), Minellacelebration (12/1), Straidnahanna (25/1), Dusky Lark (33/1)

Verdict

A cracking contest full of possibilities and it’s not easy to rule out any of the octet; Battle Of Shiloh should find this easier than his last start and being lightly-raced still looks to have some improvement left in him but he may need this. Actinpieces is one who stays well and could outstay these although she may have to work to keep in touch early on. Straidnahanna will appreciate this test and would look dangerous with an easy lead while Potter’s Legend is respected. SIR MANGAN makes his first start over fences for some time but he won over staying trips before over the larger obstacles and given how well he travelled on his recent return, could get back to winning ways.
  1. Sir Mangan
  2. Actinpieces
  3. Potters Legend
