Forecasts

The Storyteller (11/10), Vaucelet (2/1), Singing Banjo (6/1), Dorking Cock (17/2), Snow Falcon (9/1), Brain Power (10/1), Coastal Tiep (20/1), Samurai Cracker (33/1), Down The Highway (50/1), Dylrow (50/1)

THE STORYTELLER was clearly the best of these under Rules and arrives on the back of a hat-trick of victories in points. He is preferred to the progressive Vaucelet, who boasts an excellent strike rate over fences. Brain Power is also respected.
