Forecasts

Minella For Me (4/1), Duncomplaining (9/2), Edward Elgar (6/1), Chasma (15/2), Zayfire Aramis (10/1), Zigger Zagger (10/1), Fields of Glory (10/1), Caprice D'anglais (12/1), Kavanaghs Corner (14/1), Mr Jim (20/1), Easyondeye (33/1), Heurtevent (50/1), Grey Messenger (50/1), Holeinthewall Bar (100/1), Onurbike (200/1)

Verdict

This is a race that will take little winning and it would come as little surprise if the likes of Zigger Zagger or Kavanaghs Corner proved capable of upsetting the odds. Chasma has realistic chances of completing a hat-trick, although it is saying something that this is a better race than she landed last time. Fields Of Glory came to hand around this point 12 months ago and he has plenty in his favour, but the vote goes to ZAYFIRE ARAMIS for the Michael Scudamore team. He was the only one to make a race of it with the winner at Wincanton last time until making a costly error. That form, and his previous effort at Warwick, would indicate this easier task could be within his capabilities.
