Forecasts

Dolos (11/10), Adrrastos (7/2), Solar Impulse (9/2), Dandridge (7/1), Cut The Corner (12/1)

Verdict

A good race with Dolos asked to concede weight to the entire field having shown his best form at Sandown in February over 2f shorter, however he was suited by a very strong pace that day and he may not get that here which leaves a doubt. Adrrastos probably had a hopeless task in trying to chase and compete with well-handicapped Moon Over Germany last time. He’s a really likeable sort who could be allowed to set a nice rhythm in front here (he jumps very well). Two of the other three have shown their best form in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham in Solar Impulse and Dandridge neither would be at that level now but the former of the duo is respected having won by 10L last time.
  1. Adrrastos
