Forecasts

Forest Of Dean (6/4), Rise Hall (9/2), Tudor City (6/1), Johnny Drama (9/1), Beringer (9/1), Fayez (10/1), Mikmak (12/1), Furzig (14/1), Another Touch (14/1), Victory Command (16/1), Ventura Knight (20/1), Society Red (20/1), Cockalorum (25/1), Glasses Up (33/1), Poet's Dawn (50/1), Star Archer (50/1), Dragon Mall (50/1)

Verdict

FOREST OF DEAN had a lot in hand when winning what was the Extel handicap at Goodwood last time, and he can follow up despite a 7lb rise in the weights. Galway Hurdle hero Tudor City is the obvious threat, with Rise Hall and Beringer also likely to play a part in the finish.
  1. Forest Of Dean
  2. Tudor City
  3. Rise Hall
