Forecasts

Boitron (4/6), Lincoln (11/4), Trueba (7/2), Tony The Gent (9/2), Ballyquin (6/1), For The Trees (6/1), Whoareyouanyway (8/1), Taggalo (10/1), Sunset Nova (16/1), Windham Belle (20/1), Edessann (20/1), Bay Of Skaill (25/1), Distant Mirage (33/1), Theoneyouare (50/1), Chica Boom Boom (50/1), Double Coffee (50/1), Unconscious Mind (80/1)

WHOAREYOUANYWAY could be the way to go in this tricky-looking claimer. He failed to beat a rival home return in a Gowran handicap but was progressive at 2 yrs and it's likely that he has more to offer. Boitron is the clear pick at the weights but has a fair bit to prove following a truncated 2019 campaign. As such, bigger threats may be posed by For The Trees and Lincoln.
