Forecasts

Theatre Territory (7/2), Rock The Kasbah (4/1), Singlefarmpayment (5/1), Coo Star Sivola (7/1), Cogry (9/1), El Bandit (9/1), Kerrow (10/1), Doing Fine (12/1), Rolling Dylan (16/1)

Phillip Hobbs has a strong hand in this race with Rolling Dylan and ROCK THE KASBAH and it's the top-weight who gets the vote of Champion Jockey Richard Johnson. He was mightily impressive here last time out and a 6lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop him going in again. Theatre Territory has taken well to fences and always gives her running while El Bandit can't be ruled out having been likely to have needed the run at Wincanton on return. Singlefarmpayment completes the shortlist.
