Forecasts

Geremia (6/4), Byron Hill (7/2), Vis A Vis (4/1), Al Kout (13/2), Gentleman At Arms (15/2), Storm Chaser (20/1)

A competitive handicap despite the small numbers, and Marco Botti's GEREMIA looks the way to go given she deserves extra credit for her recent Chelmsford success and promises to be even better suited by her first go at 2m. Nottingham scorer Byron HIll is next on the list with course winner Al Kout not taken lightly either despite arriving on a long losing run.
