Forecasts

Bilko (11/4), Eight Till Late (4/1), Crazywork De Vassy (5/1), Elusive Ivy (5/1), Dallas Cowboy (10/1), Ontopoftheworld (10/1), Mount Beckham (10/1), Benemeade (16/1), The Shepherd King (25/1)

Verdict

Outsider The Shepherd King and the Peter Casey-trained Eight Till Late will possibly set a good clip in the early stages of this contest. Bilko doesn't look trustworthy at the moment and Crazywork De Vassy isn't consistent enough so preference is for the improving MOUNT BECKHAM who has decent form on the going, in the class and in fields of this size.
  1. Mount Beckham
  2. Bilko
  3. Crazywork De Vassy
