Forecasts

Harrison Point (2/1), Byron's Choice (11/2), Redarna (13/2), Hajjam (7/1), Flying Pursuit (15/2), Luxor (9/1), Right Action (10/1), Get Knotted (16/1), Clog Maker (22/1)

HARRISON POINT is the most progressive sort in the field and, having been stopped in his run when third here last time, he's taken to get back on the up to gain his second C&D win of the campaign at the likely expense of old-rival Hajjam. The consistent Byron's Choice also makes some appeal.
