Forecasts

Broomfields Cave (6/4), Can't Beat History (11/4), Professor Calculus (16/5), Mammies Boy (13/2), The Rain King (7/1), Bertie Wooster (8/1), Stanley Pincombe (11/1), Modreeney (12/1), Moscow Spy (18/1), Ferdinand Star (22/1), Phoenix Risen (25/1), Argus (33/1), Freddie Fleetfoot (40/1), Christopher Clive (50/1), Coconut Twist (80/1), Lost History (125/1)

Quite a few with chances but CAN'T BEAT HISTORY went very close on his handicap debut at Doncaster last week and is the percentage call to go one better from the same mark (due to go up 3 lb). Mammies Boy rates a likely improver now handicapping up in trip, while Broomfields Cave shaped well from a poor position over C&D recently and is another to take seriously.
