Forecasts

The Mighty Arc (9/4), Topofthecotswolds (3/1), Mackenberg (16/5), Nocte Volatus (4/1), The King Of May (11/2), Barton Knoll (6/1), Buster Valentine (12/1)

Quite a useful handicap. If Theo Gillard's 3 lb claim is taken into account then MACKENBERG is effectively running off the same mark as at Ayr last month so he may be able to extend his winning sequence over fences to 5. Barton Knoll has won this for the last 2 years and has likely been primed for it again so he could provide the main threat.
