Forecasts

Amathus (3/1), Winnetka (4/1), We're Reunited (4/1), Peachey Carnehan (5/1), Blades Equal (13/2), Little Brown Trout (10/1), Baileys Afterparty (11/1), Roman Power (16/1), Dodgy Bob (40/1)

A tightly-knit handicap in which WINNETKA gets the nod given he arrives on the back of a very good second at Salisbury and should benefit from reverting in trip too. Handicap-debutante Blades Equal is not without interest also dropping in distance and is next on the list ahead of in-form duo Amathus and We're Reunited.
