Forecasts

Copperhead (5/2), Sliding Doors (10/3), Putting Green (6/1), Cold As Ice (13/2), It's Got Legs (7/1), Shaw's Cross (8/1), Fenlons Court (12/1), Indian Harbour (16/1)

Verdict

SLIDING DOORS ran well over 3m last time out at Ludlow and he should be ideal for a testing 2m4f here in soft conditions, Richard Johnson being up certainly adds to the positives in his favour. Shaw's Cross is most feared of the rivals after a good run of form and he is going the other way trip-wise. Putting Green ran well last time out and is another shortlisted for a tricky little contest.
