Forecasts
Lightly Squeeze (11/8), Nineohtwooneoh (5/2), The Raven's Return (7/1), Motashakel (7/1), Vanderbilt (7/1), Never Learn (12/1), Sparky Valentine (14/1), Perfect Myth (20/1), Greenview Paradise (33/1), Fethard Flyer (40/1), Niamh's Oscar (50/1)
Plenty of these have questions to answer but THE RAVEN'S RETURN ran fairly well at Sandown earlier this month on handicap bow and off a 2lb lower mark has more going for him than most in this event. Top weight Lightly Squeeze seems to have the ability to win but has been a costly failure on his last four starts and carries a wealth warning. Both Nineohtwooneoh and hat-trick seeking Never Learn represent top yards and have to be respected, while Sparky Valentine is open to improvement and is another worthy of consideration.
- The Raven's Return
