Forecasts

Scaramanga (6/4), Fusil Raffles (2/1), McFabulous (4/1), Indefatigable (11/2)

Tough to split this quartet but tentative preference is for SCARAMANGA. Paul Nicholls' charge was an improved model over timber last spring, and having taken the final race on this corresponding card last season, he's taken to pick up where he left off in this sphere. There were more positive signs for stablemate Mcfabulous at Aintree earlier this month so he shades the vote for second over Indefatigable.
