Forecasts

Zoran (6/4), If I Say (4/1), Sir Jack West (4/1), Barely Famous (11/2), Ironhill (6/1), Copper Fox (17/2), Oval Street (18/1), Hedgehopper (25/1), Mawlood (33/1)

Verdict

ZORAN made a solid start to his chasing career when second over C&D last time and he's taken to go one better at the likely expense of If I Say, who was better than the result at Stratford last time. Oval Street is also worthy of consideration.

  1. ZORAN
  2. IF I SAY (IRE)
  3. OVAL STREET (IRE)
