Forecasts

Verdict

JOE COTTON made a big impression when scoring at Exeter on chasing debut and, although only running respectably here next time, he's worth a chance to get back on the up trying this trip for the first time. Seymour Promise is a danger if in the same form as last time and Astroman can't be ruled out.

  1. JOE COTTON (IRE)
  2. SEYMOUR PROMISE (IRE)
  3. ASTROMAN
