Forecasts

Noble Behest (9/4), In Demand (7/2), Battle Of Marathon (4/1), Grey Mist (11/2), Persian Sun (8/1), Rubenesque (12/1), Wemyss Point (20/1), Doctor Jazz (66/1), Solstalla (66/1)

Verdict

A fairly obvious case can be made for the returning Grey Mist who is 5-5 for Karen McLintock (3-3 over 2m on Tapeta), while the top-weight Battle of Marathon and the well-placed Noble Behest must also enter calculations. However, in pursuit of some each-way value a few shekels are thrown in the direction of the now Roger Charlton-trained IN DEMAND. Without a win in six starts for Charlie Fellowes, this four-year-old Dalakhani gelding was last seen finishing fourth to a trio of subsequent winners (Mr Smith, Le Musee and Tawseef) over an extended 2m1f at Carlisle in June.
  1. In Demand
  2. Noble Behest
  3. Grey Mist
