Forecasts

Scudamore (11/8), Blazon (11/2), Licit (17/2), Liva (9/1), Ivaquestion (9/1), Pledge Of Peace (14/1), Brute Force (18/1), Highway One (20/1), Evaporust (22/1), See The Eagle Fly (22/1), Winander (33/1), Lake Shore Drive (80/1), Never Surrender (80/1), Seasearch (125/1)

LICIT is unexposed at this trip but shaped as though she should have no issues with it when running well over 14f last year. With Oisin Murphy taking the ride, she makes plenty of appeal. Scudamore will be a danger in his bid to follow up a comprehensive Chelmsford victory under a penalty. Blazon has a good record over C&D and can't be dismissed either.
