Forecasts

Artifice Sivola (5/2), Mamoo (5/2), Fixed Rate (9/2), Argante (5/1), Mariah's Legend (7/1), Crookstown (12/1)

A small enough field but it is hard to rule any of them out with total confidence and in the hope that his class will be a significant factor, the suggestion is FIXED RATE. Charlie Mann's charge was out of sorts last time, but he handles soft ground and races over his optimum trip, while he has C&D winning form. The last comment also applies to Mamoo who could be a serious danger in receipt of plenty of weight. Crookstown, Mariah's Legend and Artifice Sivola all have points of merit and are not dismissed lightly.
