Forecasts

Kansas City Chief (4/6), Niceandeasy (7/2), Planet Nine (11/2), Dark Sunset (12/1), Tomkevi (20/1), Royal Salute (50/1)

Kansas City Chief is very much respected after getting it right for the first time over hurdles at Doncaster and a 7lb penalty for his 8L win may not be enough to stop him. However, NICEANDEASY is open to further improvement in handicaps now stepped up in trip and he is preferred on this occasion. Planet Nine is not ruled out, while Tomkevi could come into it if at his best and Dark Sunset would also have claims if handling conditions.
