Forecasts

Nuits St Georges (3/1), Orin Swift (7/2), Early Summer (9/2), October Storm (6/1), Bailarico (8/1), Suegioo (8/1), Guns of Leros (16/1), Dawn Trouper (20/1), Master Archer (25/1), Maquisard (25/1), Imphal (33/1)

Conditions are set to favour NUITS ST GEORGES, a winner on soft ground at Nottingham last time, given solid claims from this 4lb higher mark with the longer trip unlikely to derail him given the way he went through the line last time. Orin Swift looks a big danger and is another for whom ease underfoot is favourable. October Storm wasn't seen to best effect on quick ground over C&D last month but may bounce back now. Guns of Leros lurks on a favourable mark these days, while Irish import Dawn Trouper stays this far and will be sharper for the run at Chester. Handicap debutante Early Summer is worth monitoring too.
