Forecasts

Grenham Bay (4/1), Airshow (4/1), Conquistador (11/2), Beyond Equal (6/1), Hiatus (7/1), Beauzon (9/1), Dakota Power (11/1), Lilkian (12/1), Eight Mile (18/1), Some Nightmare (25/1)

Verdict

GRENHAM BAY returned to form when runner-up to a subsequent winner at Southwell 16 days ago and is the percentage call to go one better from the same mark. Beauzon is better judged on his previous form having pulled too hard over a longer trip at Chelmsford last time, while Beyond Equal and Lilkian are others to consider.

  2. BEAUZON
