Forecasts

Polybius (2/1), Baron Bolt (11/4), Boom The Groom (7/2), Watchable (9/2), Handytalk (8/1)

Verdict

BOOM THE GROOM may find it easier to dominate this small field than his recent assignments and he's taken to get his head back in front at a course he's run well at before. Baron Bolt isn't dismissed and is generally a consistent sort. The same can not be said for Watchable but he's certainly not out of this if he arrives in the same sort of form that saw him win at Doncaster.
  1. Boom The Groom
  2. Baron Bolt
  3. Watchable
