Forecasts

Storm Rising (2/5), Silva Eclipse (7/1), Dino Velvet (7/1), Apterix (8/1), Eskendash (8/1), Blue Hussar (12/1), Cornborough (14/1), Sleepy Haven (40/1), Crushed (66/1)

There's a slight worry in so much as this race may be run at a bit of a crawl, which might not suit, but even allowing for that STORM RISING won so easily at the weekend that he must be the one to beat on the same mark today. That slow pace could count against Eskendash, so Dino Velvet, who will enjoy the likely quick conditions, and the capable but somewhat unpredictable Blue Hussar might be the two that give him most to think about.
