Forecasts

Invincible Ryker (3/1), Settle For Bay (10/3), Koybig (7/2), Rivellino (8/1), Arbourfield (8/1), Ishebayorgrey (10/1), Six Silver Lane (11/1), Mcguigan (14/1), Gilded Reflection (16/1), Red Avenger (20/1), Chunkyfunkymonkey (20/1), Alcatraz (22/1), Reckless Lad (25/1), A Shin Impala (25/1), Poetic Choice (33/1), Meetyouatthemoon (50/1), Ocean Air (66/1)

Verdict

Quite a hot race for its type and the ones to make most appeal are the in-form Settle For Bay and KOYBIG. The latter is improving and clearly loves the challenge of C&D. The dangers are headed by Invincible Ryker, while Gilded Reflection, Arbourfield, Reckless Lad and Rivellino are also respected.
  1. Koybig
  2. Settle For Bay
  3. Invincible Ryker
