Forecasts

Included (7/4), Precious Bounty (9/4), Cesar Du Gouet (5/1), Song Of The Sky (9/1), Lock's Corner (10/1), Bagan (12/1)

Cesar De Gouet would be hard to beat if reproducing the form of his Huntingdon victory, but a poor run since and some expensive failures for the yard this week raise doubts. Lock's Corner may do better now chasing and Song Of The Sky would make more appeal if conditions turned soft. Included is a consistent mare who has taken well to chasing, but PRECIOUS BOUNTY makes more appeal in the hope that the cheekpieces, that seemed to reform him last time, continue to have the desired effect. He looks well treated on the pick of his hurdling form and and his front-running tactics could expose flaws in his rivals.
