Forecasts

Ey Up It's Maggie (3/1), Bert Kibbler (11/2), Lady Lade (6/1), Le Beau Garcon (15/2), Primo's Comet (17/2), Rory (17/2), Havagomecca (10/1), Monsieur Kodi (11/1), Black Friday (11/1), Bay Breeze (12/1), Ballyare (12/1), Vadamiah (14/1), Jordan Electrics (16/1), James Watt (22/1), Rock Melody (33/1), Leodis Dream (40/1), Global Humor (50/1)

Verdict

PRIMO'S COMET notched his sixth success over this C&D on his latest visit here last summer and, now 10 lb below that winning mark, he makes plenty of appeal on the back of some eye-catching recent efforts on the all-weather. Vadamiah would have been even higher on the shortlist but for being drawn widest of all and, under the circumstances, Ey Up It's Maggie, who made a winning reappearance at Doncaster last weekend, is feared most. Le Beau Garcon is also worth a second look.
