Forecasts

Lord Melbourne (5/4), Gordon Grey (6/1), Zhang Fei (13/2), Enochdhu (8/1), Fast Steps (17/2), Warning Sign (11/1), Cervetto (12/1), Aikhal (14/1), Green Team (20/1), Bug Boy (20/1), Sanitiser (100/1)

Verdict

LORD MELBOURNE has started well for Ralph Beckett and likely has more to come, so he's the most appealing with Simon Walker on board. Recent C&D winner Gordon Grey is an obvious danger and Zhang Fei can't be dismissed.

  1. LORD MELBOURNE (IRE)
  2. GORDON GREY (IRE)
  3. ZHANG FEI (FR)
