Forecasts

Royal Hall (5/2), Just Fred (5/1), Hi There Silver (11/2), Outrath (7/1), General Brook (8/1), Queen Moon (10/1), Sexy Secret (16/1), Ixelles Diamond (20/1), Altaira (20/1), Dragonite (25/1), Gunner Moyne (33/1), Golden Cannon (40/1), Awesome Rock (50/1), Life Happens (66/1)

Verdict

A modest opener in which Just Fred has to be considered, having proved a revelation when opening his account in a new headgear combination at Chelmsford last time. That said, SEXY SECRET - who was backed into favouritism that day - enjoys a 3lb pull for a 2L beating and that may just prove enough to reverse the form considering he didn't enjoy the smoothest of passages at the Essex venue. Recent course winner General Brook also merits a place in the shortlist whilst Royal Hall is interesting in a first-time visor.
