Forecasts

Ayr Poet (10/3), Cruyff Turn (4/1), Cockalorum (9/2), Overwrite (5/1), Amaysmont (9/1), Bringitonboris (9/1), Red Bond (9/1), House Of Kings (22/1), Hajjam (50/1)

BRINGITONBORIS was a three-time 1m winner in 2020 and signalled he's ready to go in again when running on well into fourth in a big-field 7f York handicap earlier in the month. Cruyff Turn is a big player once more on the back of his recent Nottingham victory, with Ayr Poet and Overwrite two more who need considering in a useful handicap.
