Forecasts

Groundunderrepair (3/1), Camron De Chaillac (7/2), Bradford Bridge (7/1), It's Obvious (8/1), Culture De Sivola (10/1), Kalmbeforethestorm (10/1), Quinto (12/1), Daytime Ahead (12/1), Somerset Jem (14/1), Take A Break (14/1), Billy Dutton (20/1)

Verdict

Groundunderrepair is of obvious interest given the form he's been in recently, but preference is for CAMRON DE CHAILLAC. Bidding for a hat-trick he carries a 7lb penalty, and though that may have been an issue over a short distance it seems that this step up in trip should help him find further improvement on ground that should suit and at a course he won at as recently as December. Kalmbeforethestorm is another for the shortlist after an encouraging performance last time out.
  1. Camron De Chaillac
  2. Groundunderrepair
  3. Kalmbeforethestorm
