Forecasts

Chief Brody (11/4), Gregarious (11/4), The Gipper (4/1), The Cannister Man (6/1), Volpone Jelois (9/1), Clayton (10/1), Eddiemaurice (12/1), He's A Goer (12/1), Royal Sunday (14/1), Oden (20/1), Harmonise (25/1)

Verdict

CHIEF BRODY absolutely hacked up on his stable debut last term in similar conditions and after a positive second on a quicker surface to start this season he can get back to winning ways now with a return to conditions akin to those he won so impressively in. Similarly impressive on heavy ground last season was The Cannister Man and he rates the biggest danger with the lack of a recent run the only way to separate the pair really. Completing the shortlist is last year's winner Clayton who will also enjoy conditions.
  1. Chief Brody
  2. The Cannister Man
  3. Clayton
