Forecasts

Western Zephyr (11/10), Beau Balko (6/4), Mr Grey Sky (9/4), Chanceux (5/1), Timeforatune (14/1)

A tricky contest to solve despite the small field but the vote goes to the progressive MR GREY SKY, who was perhaps a shade fortunate to follow up his reappearance success at Chepstow last time but Kim Bailey's charge is fancied to complete the hat-trick at the expense of Western Zephyr, who has taken well to fences this season. Beau Balko is seemingly best of the rest.
