Forecasts

Landofsmiles (9/2), The Butcher Said (5/1), Tommy Rapper (8/1), Potterman (8/1), Forgot To Ask (17/2), Mellow Ben (11/1), El Presente (12/1), Soupy Soups (14/1), Caltex (16/1), Get Out The Gate (16/1), Valtor (22/1), Chirico Vallis (25/1), Talkischeap (28/1), Bafana Blue (33/1), Ain't My Fault (33/1)

Verdict

Lots with chances. POTTERMAN won the bet365 Gold Cup in the stewards' room but Alan King's likeable stayer can take this handicap of his own accord nudged up just 1 lb for that cracking effort after a break. Mellow Ben has proved expensive to follow but lurks on a good mark so is feared most with Tommy Rapper another who is weighted to have a say.

  1. POTTERMAN
  2. MELLOW BEN (IRE)
  3. TOMMY RAPPER (IRE)
