Forecasts

Scarborough Castle (13/8), Blazer Two (5/2), Princess T (6/1), Schwartz (17/2), Tulane (10/1), Hammy End (12/1), Star Of Epsom (12/1), Victory Roll (12/1), Donya (25/1), Morani Kali (40/1), Double Legend (40/1), Dusk Chorus (100/1), Debbonair (150/1), Enchantee (200/1)

Not nearly so competitive as the numbers suggest, and SCARBOROUGH CASTLE looks set to defy a 6 lb rise in the weights and complete his hat-trick with the return to this longer trip very much in his favour. Blazer Two has still to get his head in front but is feared most on the back of his good Wolverhampton second. Star of Epsom rates the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
