Forecasts

Gustavus Vassa (7/2), Exchange Rate (5/1), Whirling Dervish (11/2), Emperor Waltz (8/1), Le Vagabond (11/1), Law Girl (12/1), Meri Devie (12/1), Brazos (14/1), Near Kettering (14/1), Top Othe Ra (14/1), Ancient Sands (20/1), Tudor City (25/1), Eight Till Late (40/1), Nelson Road (50/1)

Verdict

A decent contest in which plenty have chances. Emperor Waltz has been in terrific form and comes here chasing a hat-trick. the drop in trip is a slight concern having been so strong in the finish over further the last twice. Whirling Dervish is interesting moving into a handicap off what looks a fair mark and is very much respected. EXCHANGE RATE has turned into a smart hurdler and is unbeaten on the level. His opening mark may underestimate his ability and he can get back to winning ways.
