Forecasts

Rustang (6/4), Dream Point (10/3), Knight In Armour (4/1), Finisher (6/1), Verstappen (6/1), Cross Swords (7/1)

Verdict

Cases can be made for all six runners, although Rustang, Verstappen and Knight In Armour have already shown their hands to some degree in handicap company. Top-weight Dream Point is interesting for his upwardly-mobile Irish trainer and the best has yet to be seen of Cross Swords, but the vote goes to FINISHER, who has a good dirt pedigree and looks the type to prosper now he is handicapping.
