Forecasts

Dundory (9/4), Restorer (7/2), Ayr Poet (7/2), Where's Jeff (9/2), Detective (11/2)

Verdict

DETECTIVE is on an appealing mark and shaped well in a slightly stronger contest than this at Carlisle last time, so he gets the marginal vote in a race where a case can be made for every runner. Ayr Poet has been in a rich vein of form for a while, so he's considered a threat, while Restorer is hard to rule out.

  1. DETECTIVE
  2. AYR POET
  3. RESTORER
