Forecasts

Jungle Dance (5/2), Zachary (5/2), Arlington (9/2), Desert Master (17/2), Lady Of The Garr (17/2), Tip Top Tank (12/1), Smooth Silesie (12/1), Grid Iron Maiden (14/1)

The suggestion is DESERT MASTER, who has slipped to an attractive mark and shaped well on his first start since being gelded when fourth in a 6f Southwell handicap, leaving the impression that this return to the minimum trip would be just the ticket. Zachary hit the crossbar at Kempton recently and he won't go down without a fight, while the hat-trick seeking Jungle Dance would have to be feared if lining up again.
