Forecasts

Craig Star (4/1), Castletown (4/1), Titus Bolt (5/1), Mister Showman (6/1), Benny's Secret (7/1), Buyer Beware (7/1), Staigue Fort (11/1), Thorpe (14/1), Argent Knight (40/1)

Verdict

BENNY'S SECRET is just about the most appealing of these, despite an 8lb hike for his most recent success at Kelso. He did things fairly smoothly there and may still be on the right side of the assessor. He looks sure to go close again. Castletown has twice shaped with promise over timber this term, while he's forgiven a lesser effort over fences since. Still a maiden over jumps, he can get involved in this now back over smaller obstacles. Mister Showman and Craig Star complete the shortlist.
