Forecasts

Mr Vango (11/4), Track And Trace (4/1), Foxboro (5/1), Take Your Time (13/2), Robyndzone (7/1), Lyrical Genius (9/1), Golden Sovereign (12/1), Sidi Ismael (12/1)

Verdict

While TAKE YOUR TIME was admittedly disappointing at Wincanton last time, he was a thoroughly decisive winner at the same course on his penultimate start and is well worth another chance off a mark still below that off which he was successful over hurdles. Track And Trace and Robyndzone both coped very well with the step up to marathon trips on their latest outings and are feared most in that order of preference. Mr Vango is also worth a second look.
