Forecasts

Stage Star (11/10), Richmond Lake (9/2), Shakem Up'arry (11/2), Frero Banbou (13/2), Al Dancer (11/1), Torn And Frayed (18/1)

STAGE STAR has to concede lumps of weight all round but advertised his Ryanair claims when a decisive winner of the Paddy Power Gold Cup here on his return and can now defy an official mark of 166. Richmond Lake also arrives on an upward curve and is feared most in his bid to complete a remarkable five-timer, although a solid case can also be made for in-form duo Frero Banbou and Shakem Up' Arry.
