Forecasts

Western Ryder (7/4), Kalashnikov (2/1), Mont Des Avaloirs (4/1), Sussex Ranger (15/2), Summerville Boy (8/1), The Russian Doyen (10/1)

Western Ryder has the form in the bank, and a test like this looks tailor-made for him, so he's hard to knock. Similar comments apply to Kalashnikov, who dug deep at Doncaster but the pair could be in for a surprise as SUSSEX RANGER, who takes this in rather than the juvenile contest that starts the card, looked a horse of great potential when sluicing up over C&D here last time out. The time of that was good too, and getting weight from the principals, can cause the upset.
