Forecasts

Druid's Folly (11/10), Edward Elgar (6/1), Modulus (6/1), Kastani Beach (7/1), Banff (15/2), Barney From Tyanee (9/1), Bisoubisou (10/1), Visible Light (12/1), Gentleman Farmer (14/1), Thefriendlygremlin (66/1)

Verdict

Hardly the most reliable bunch to get involved with but at least DRUID'S FOLLY has managed to put two decent runs together now and he has won around this course which is a major plus in this field. The chances are that Banff is better than this mark but he looked a little temperamental last time and looks a hard one to totally trust although he has to be respected in this grade. Modulus would be capable of winning off this mark if he can recover some zip and the stamina test that this course provides should suit Barney From Tyanee. Visible Light would be a danger to all off this mark if he was ready after a long break having looked progressive when last seen.
  1. Druid's Folly
  2. Barney From Tyanee
  3. Banff
