Forecasts

Follow Your Heart (3/1), Thegreatestshowman (9/2), Shalaa Asker (5/1), Hyde Park Barracks (11/2), Benefit Street (9/1), Rose Hip (10/1), Mutabaahy (10/1), Vandad (10/1), Eye Of Heaven (16/1), Giorgio Vasari (25/1), Highest Ambition (66/1)

FOLLOW YOUR HEART won here in March and he returned to form at Pontefract a fortnight ago. He still has relatively few miles on the clock and could have a fruitful end to the year on the all-weather. Thegreatestshowman is always a danger in these events on the all-weather and he'll be involved in the finish. Hyde Park Barracks has to be considered too.
