Forecasts

Gossamer Silk (2/1), Company Minx (3/1), Brazen Arrow (4/1), Mellencamp (5/1), Super Julius (10/1), Twilight Bay (18/1), Glen Etive (25/1), Hot Mop (25/1), Maison Beau (66/1), Robert Frost (66/1), Swooper (150/1)

Verdict

COMPANY MINX is more than capable of winning at this level and, from a handy inside stall, she gets the nod with Harry Davies taking 5 lb off her back. Gossamer Silk, Brazen Arrow and Mellencamp can battle it out for minor honours.
