Forecasts

Mcgroarty (1/1), Monsieur Co (2/1), Yorkist (6/1), Demi Sang (9/1)

Just the four runners, but a very tricky looking contest. Rain is forecast, and that could mean a change in going from the advertised description of predominately Good. That would hinder the chances of three of the four declared runners, Mcgroarty, Yorkist and the C&D scorer Monsieur Co. Therefore, should such a scenario develop small stakes are aimed towards the now Ben Haslam-trained DEMI SANG in the hope that he can make the most of a free-falling handicap mark. If the rain misses Kelso, then Mcgroarty could be the most likely winner after posting a solid return to action in a 2m Listed contest at Ayr on Scottish Grand National Day.
