Forecasts

Niceandeasy (3/1), Sunny Destination (7/2), Mighty Thunder (7/2), Ryedale Racer (7/1), Arctic Vodka (12/1), Plus Jamais (14/1), Arthurs Secret (16/1), Road To Gold (20/1), Steamboat Bill (25/1), Landecker (33/1), Shtan On (33/1)

Verdict

Ryedale Racer goes well after a break, so could be primed for a good reappearance here, while Mighty Thunder is of interest and Sunny Destination merits consideration after his recent career best. Arctic Vodka is on a dangerous mark if he can come back to his best, but preference is for NICEANDEASY, who is unexposed and could be suited by the return to this sort of trip.
  1. Niceandeasy
