Forecasts

Some Scope (3/1), Charlie Uberalles (9/2), Undersupervision (11/2), Certainly Red (6/1), Java Point (7/1), Erne River (8/1), Half Shot (9/1), Docpickedme (10/1), Ashtown Lad (12/1), Hidden Heroics (14/1), Does He Know (20/1), Flash Collonges (25/1), Kinondo Kwetu (25/1)

Verdict

SOME SCOPE is a chaser on a steep upward curve so is taken to defy a 10 lb rise and complete the hat-trick. Java Point has made a promising start for this yard and remains on a good mark on old form after his Sandown win, so is next best ahead of Undersupervision, who went close to winning this for the second year in succession 12 months ago.
