Forecasts

Red Bond (11/4), Golden Force (16/5), Assimilation (4/1), Masked Identity (5/1), Irreverent (6/1), De Vegas Kid (10/1), Striding Edge (50/1)

IRREVERENT ran very well on this surface at the end of October before disappointing at Lingfield last time. He can be forgiven a bad run round there and get back on track here. Masked Identity and Golden Force look the best alternatives in a fairly uncompetitive handcap.
