Forecasts

Sageburg County (6/4), Imperial Bede (15/8), Family Business (4/1), Heartbreak Kid (4/1), Key Commander (6/1)

Hard to make an overly convincing case for any of the quintet, with IMPERIAL BEDE chanced to find some improvement for the switch to fences, this kind of trip having always appealed as suitable for Jonjo O'Neill's gelding. Key Commander was in decent heart last spring and is also respected after a recent spin over hurdles, whilst Sageburg County would also merit plenty of respect if arriving on his A-game, for all his recent Doncaster effort was concerning.
