Forecasts

Man Of Steel (4/6), Abbeyview (7/2), Martha's Benefit (6/1), Clues And Arrows (14/1), Forge Valley (16/1), Sposalizio (25/1), Firmount Gent (80/1)

Regular hardened racegoers at Cartmel will be familiar with the majority of this seven strong field, with Sposalizio (2014) Abbeyview (2016) and Martha's Benefit (2017) all past winners of the 2m5f maiden hunters chase on May Bank Holiday Monday. However, the Alan Hill trained MAN OF STEEL has made this stronger race his own over the past two years, and arrives fighting fit on a hat-trick with ground conditions forecast to be ideal, so is impossible to oppose having put today's rival and ever-ageing veteran Forge Valley in his place to the tune of 12L in 2017.
