Forecasts

Shutthegate (11/4), Eros (3/1), Investment Manager (9/2), Blue Ribbon (13/2), Electric Annie (13/2), Keplerian (8/1), Baily Gorse (9/1), Foillmore (14/1), Professor Calculus (18/1), Dannystory (22/1), Aces Full (25/1), Fanfan La Colmine (28/1)

Verdict

SHUTTHEGATE left his previous chase exploits in his wake when scoring comfortably in first-time blinkers at Chepstow (19.4f) 23 days ago and a repeat should see him firmly in the mix once more. Eros is proving to be a model of consistency and is feared stepping back up in trip, whilst it would come as no surprise to see a better showing from Investment Manager back from a short break.
