Forecasts

Cross Counter (13/8), Corelli (3/1), Occupy (7/2), Elegiac (5/1), Gossip Column (11/2), Desert Path (12/1), Berkshire Royal (14/1), King's Proctor (16/1)

Elegiac may be the best of his stable's two runners, Corelli is interesting on his handicap debut and Gossip Column and Desert Path may have more to offer after wins on their most recent starts. However, the finish may be fought out by CROSS COUNTER and Occupy, who were fourth and fifth in the King George V Handicap at the Royal meeting and who can take another step forward. Berkshire Royal continues to climb the handicap, but stays well and is not out of it.
