Forecasts

He's Our Star (9/4), Queen Of Burgundy (16/5), Thunderoad (9/2), Sam Bellamy (6/1), Thomas Lanfiere (13/2), Montys Inn (8/1), Kingston Kurrajong (50/1), On The Nose (80/1), Bonnie Beth (80/1)

HE'S OUR STAR makes most appeal in a trappy event. He won well over C&D earlier in the month and a 4 lb rise might not be enough to stop him getting the double up at a venue where he's won off higher marks in the past. Sam Bellamy shaped better at Chelmsford last time and he warrants respect. A case can be made for Queen of Burgundy too.
