Forecasts

Becky The Thatcher (5/4), Waiting For Richie (3/1), Tyrell (9/2), Icefall (8/1), Wemyss Point (8/1), Graceful Lady (10/1), Azam (10/1), Wind Place And Sho (16/1), Katie Gale (20/1), Zakatal (25/1)

A highly competitive stayers' contest in which BECKY THE THATCHER is the tentative selection. She shaped with plenty of promise here before winning by five lengths last time and there could be more to come from her this season. Waiting For Richie can't be ruled out after some lenient handicapping from the assessor and Tyrell isn't ruled out if he can replicate his recent hurdles form on the level.
