Forecasts

Kaizer (5/2), Dequall (5/2), Milvale (9/2), Off The Hook (5/1), Highland Sting (13/2), Taxmeifyoucan (17/2), Final Reminder (18/1), Silva Eclipse (25/1), Chapel Stile (25/1)

Verdict

It could be worth chancing DEQUALL, who went with a little more fluency tried in blinkers at Newcastle and is lurking on a handy mark with Peter Kavanagh taking off an additional 7 lb. Milvale seems to save his best efforts for this track and responded well to this headgear last time, while Irish-raider Highland Sting must be respected given his yard's record with handicap-hurdle debutants.
