Forecasts

Not A Role Model (5/1), Samson (5/1), Like Sully (6/1), Glengra (13/2), Beallandendall (7/1), Barton Rose (7/1), Iona Days (9/1), Flashman (14/1), Alanjou (20/1), Fields of Glory (20/1), Code Of Law (25/1)

Verdict

There are question marks hanging over quite a few of these and the safest bet might well be last year's winner, the 13-year-old IONA DAYS, who could well have been trained with a repeat bid in mind. Not A Role Model remains unexposed over fences and rates a danger, while Beallandendall also has a chance on recent evidence. Samson and Barton Rose are others to consider along with the frustrating Code Of Law.
