Forecasts

Geryville (9/2), Cash To Ash (5/1), Donna's Double (6/1), Burrows Diamond (7/1), Small Present (7/1), The Ferry Master (17/2), Omar Maretti (9/1), Niceandeasy (11/1), Bavington Bob (11/1), Blaklion (22/1)

Verdict

There's an air of unfinished business surrounding SMALL PRESENT as a staying chaser and with his Haydock run easy to excuse, he looks the way to go. Geryville arrives on the back of a brace of wins and he's a threat, while Omar Maretti could be dangerous if reacting positively to headgear.

  1. SMALL PRESENT (IRE)
  2. GERYVILLE (FR)
  3. OMAR MARETTI (IRE)
