Forecasts

Sheriff Garrett (11/4), Methag (3/1), Cyrus Keep (6/1), You Name Him (15/2), River Frost (10/1), Skipthescales (11/1), Kayf Adventure (11/1), Mauritian Bolt (16/1), Taking Flight (18/1), Mr Lombardi (33/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken on KAYF ADVENTURE to reverse the form with Sheriff Garrett from last time and come out on top having been eased a further 5 lb in the weights. The latter should give another good account, while Methag's best efforts entitle her to plenty of respect off her current mark of 104.
