Forecasts

Longshanks (2/1), Gustavian (2/1), Mario De Pail (10/3), Broken Halo (9/2), Clemencia (22/1)

GUSTAVIAN shaped well under a considerate ride when third on his reappearance/chase debut at Uttoxeter, form which was done no harm when the runner-up there also found just one too good at Newbury on Wednesday. He is entitled to come on for that run and earns the narrow vote ahead of Broken Halo, who made a similarly promising start over fences at Chepstow. Longshanks also merits respect.
