Forecasts

Bennys King (15/8), Rebel Dawn Rising (7/2), Sir Jack Yeats (5/1), Mister Whitaker (11/2), Gaboriot (7/1), Zee Man (11/1), General Custard (16/1), Peacocks Secret (25/1)

Verdict

BENNYS KING scored at Hereford on his penultimate start and had running left when unseating at Haydock last time. He's the class act in this field and is preferred to Mister Whitaker, who needs to see his race out more fully than has recently been the case. Sir Jack Yeats is another one to consider.
