Forecasts

Khage (11/8), Dr Sanderson (2/1), The Crooner (5/1), Olympic Odyssey (7/1), Yaa Salaam (8/1), Paxman (10/1), Havana River (12/1), Pond Road (14/1), Tiger's Legacy (66/1)

Verdict

Getting the weight, The Crooner is probably the one to beat but the form of his Warwick third isn't standing up as yet, and it may pay to forgive KHAGE a poor effort at Fakenham last time out as that track isn't every horse's cup of tea and concentrate on his Taunton win instead, which gives him every chance here. Dr Sanderson comes from a yard in great form and can't be discounted,
  1. Khage
  2. Dr Sanderson
  3. The Crooner
