Forecasts

Movie Legend (5/2), Bach De Clermont (5/2), Land League (11/4), Mercian King (4/1), Chestnut Ben (5/1), Brother Bennett (25/1)

Verdict

An interesting way to wrap up the card and despite his advancing years the suggestion is to side with the prolific CHESTNUT BEN. True, others may have possible improvement in them that he has not, but what you get is a gelding who has trip and ground to suit and remains hugely competitive from this mark. Movie Legend would have strong claims if capable of reproducing the same level of form as when scoring two starts ago, but Bach De Clermont doesn't have a huge amount to find with him on their Kempton running and is not ruled out. Mercian King is also a potential danger at this more realistic level.
