Forecasts

Verdict

Having caught the eye when staying on well into third on his Rules debut at Wetherby, BENASSI is likely to prove hard to beat with improvement on the cards. Milans Edge is the clear main danger, despite returning from a lengthy absence, while Mr Hailstone, who was also last seen out back in May 2021, is one to note in the betting.
