Forecasts

Potterman (5/2), Court Dreaming (5/1), Castletown (6/1), Legalized (6/1), Stowaway Magic (15/2), Quest For Life (12/1), Golden Jeffrey (12/1), Blunder Buss (12/1), Katgary (16/1), River Icon (20/1), Beau Et Sublime (25/1)

Verdict

Quite a few of these have been struggling for form of late so recent Sedgefield winner LEGALIZED might be the safest choice. She's only been raised 3lb and while this is a better event she should still give a good account of herself. Golden Jeffrey looks the best of the two Iain Jardine runners and should give it a good go, while Court Dreaming is a potential improver and is very much respected. Potterman looked on the way back last time, and Stowaway Magic has a squeak having got stuck in the mud last time out.
  1. Legalized
  2. Court Dreaming
  3. Golden Jeffrey
