Forecasts

Nisior Donn (3/1), Silk Cravat (10/3), Fivehundredmiles (4/1), Footsteps At Dawn (15/2), Three Majors (9/1), Hee Haw (10/1), Arcanecho (12/1), A Likely Story (14/1), Nailed On Nina (18/1), Dollar Value (20/1), Pushaq (25/1), Phoenix Lightning (33/1)

Verdict

Nisior Donn has improved a great deal for Gavin Cromwell but now needs to find a lot more to defy another rise in the weights and to confirm February form with Silk Cravat who has also improved since. Arcanecho rates a danger on the balance of two good runs here over 6f but there is a worry this may come too quick after his comeback run on Sunday. Three Majors makes each-way appeal off a career low mark, but the handicapper may have the measure of last year's winner A Likely Story. FIVEHUNDREDMILES has returned better for a break and a drop to successive career low marks. Cheekpieces will not have to produce much improvement to make him the one to beat.
  1. Fivehundredmiles
  2. Silk Cravat
  3. Three Majors
