Forecasts

Roar (5/2), Captain Haddock (4/1), Vintage Rascal (5/1), Russian Rumour (11/2), Master Grey (7/1), Running Cloud (10/1), Neverbeen To Paris (10/1), Knight Crusader (12/1), Arty Campbell (22/1), Cry Wolf (50/1)

The drop in trip won't inconvenience RUSSIAN RUMOUR and with Becky Smith booked, she certainly won't lack for assistance from the saddle. This is an open race though, with Master Grey and Roar a couple of potential threats.
