Forecasts

That's A Given (9/4), West To The Bridge (5/2), Sam I (4/1), Time For Another (5/1), Guiding Stars (10/1), Kala Noire (14/1), Gamekeeper Bill (40/1), Talk Of Monty (66/1)

Verdict

West To The Bridge has the pick of the form from those to have raced but could prove vulnerable to one of the newcomers. Harry Fry has a good record in this discipline so Sam I has to go on the shortlist with decent Flat bloodlines in the pedigree. Time For Another is the most expensive of these and represents powerful connections. As a son of Shantou the conditions will not be an issue and the market will tell us more. Philip Hobbs' team are beginning to emerge from a quiet spell and THAT'S A GIVEN. is selected to emulate his half-brother Wait For Me and make a successful racecourse debut.
