Forecasts

Thegreatestshowman (10/11), Giogiobbo (4/1), Nigel Nott (5/1), Dark Shot (15/2), Penelope Queen (10/1)

Verdict

This is a trappy affair and the suggestion is DARK SHOT, who is now 2 lb below his last winning mark and performed with credit on 2 of his 3 starts over this C&D last month. Stablemate Giogiobbo is a big player judged on his close second here on penultimate start, but he wasn't in the same form back here on Tuesday and Nigel Nott may emerge as the main danger.

  1. DARK SHOT
  2. NIGEL NOTT
  3. GIOGIOBBO
