Forecasts

Some Chaos (9/4), Beware The Bear (7/2), Rolling Dylan (4/1), Robinsfirth (4/1), Sir Mangan (8/1), Shanroe Santos (10/1), The Druids Nephew (12/1), Thomas Crapper (14/1), Perfect Candidate (16/1), Alvarado (33/1)

Verdict

A fascinating stayers contest and it might be worth taking a chance on one of the less exposed sorts. SOME CHAOS makes most appeal after a highly promising start for his new yard and this smart jumper is expected to take to this course. Rolling Dylan ran well here last time and has less miles on the clock than some while Perfect Candidate could go well, with the handicapper dropping him to what would appear to be a lenient handicap mark.
  1. Some Chaos
  2. Rolling Dylan
  3. Perfect Candidate
