Forecasts

Itsnoteasy (5/6), Intimate (10/3), Gris Gris Top (5/1), Chindit Warrior (7/1), There's Claude (20/1), Hawaii Du Mestivel (50/1), Westbrook Lad (100/1), Parliament (125/1), Joker De Thaix (150/1), Johnthepostman (250/1)

Verdict

This looks like a decent opportunity for ITSNOTEASY to gain compensation for his Uttoxeter near miss. Gris Gris Top is feared most now setting out for new trainer Donald McCain. Chindit Warrior has been off for over 2 years since finishing well held on his debut in France but returns for the Paul Nicholls stable so needs monitoring in the betting.
