Forecasts

George Ridsdale (7/4), Cafe Milano (9/2), Tawtheef (6/1), Guitar (8/1), Laurentia (9/1), Come To Pass (10/1), Stranger Things (10/1), Hot Day (10/1), Tinchoo (14/1), Catch My Breath (16/1), Waleyfa (22/1), Henley Park (28/1), Gokotta (66/1), Carmela Soprano (100/1)

TAWTHEEF shaped a fair bit better than the result on turf at Newbury last time and this former C&D might be the answer to this tricky handicap. Laurentia will be a danger if back to the form she showed when second at Chelmsford on her penultimate start, while George Ridsdale is favourably treated on his best form and is one to note in the market with Jim Crowley taking the ride.
