Forecasts

Adrrastos (13/8), Raven's Tower (11/4), Capital Force (3/1), King Alfonso (7/2), Dandridge (5/1), Double Treasure (14/1)

ADRRASTOS has been in good form in recent starts and he can gain a second victory in his last three starts with success in this six runner handicap chase. The selection hails from a good yard and is taken to get the better of Capital Force who can claim second ahead of Dandridge who has won off a higher mark in the past.
