Forecasts

Glenister (13/8), Citizen General (7/2), Cavendish (9/1), Baltic Baron (9/1), Daaris (12/1), Major Snugfit (12/1), Spycracker (16/1), Bamboo Bay (16/1), Prophesise (20/1), Make A Prophet (28/1), Going Underground (28/1), Purple Ice (33/1), Cease And Desist (40/1)

Having made a successful handicap debut at Lingfield, GLENISTER didn't do a lot wrong despite failing to land the odds at Southwell 3 weeks ago, clear of the rest when runner-up to a quirky but well-handicapped rival. He remains open to progress and is very much the one to beat, with Citizen General and Baltic Baron feared most.
