Forecasts

Escalade (9/4), Robeam (4/1), Sophar Sogood (5/1), Raventree (5/1), Justified (13/2), Tynecastle Park (7/1), Londonia (9/1), Kensington Art (11/1), Dragons Voice (25/1), Cuillin (33/1), Going Native (50/1)

A few with chances but ROBEAM looks the way to go as his latest Wolverhampton third is strong form for this grade and he can also boast a recent course win. In-form 3-y-o duo Justified and Raventree hail from leading yards and are both sure to make their presence felt in an open handicap.
