Forecasts

Bringitonboris (11/4), Dawaaleeb (4/1), Sandret (6/1), Defence Treaty (13/2), Crownthorpe (7/1), Gravity Force (17/2), Anif (10/1), Convertible (14/1), Spiorad (16/1), St Just (16/1), Aweedram (25/1), Custard The Dragon (28/1), Little Jo (66/1)

SANDRET has steadily worked his way down to an attractive-looking mark, and after rediscovering his form over C&D last month, he can go one better here. Recent C&D winners Bringitonboris and Dawaaleeb should give him most to think about.
