Forecasts

Point Sur (13/8), Native Warrior (10/3), Strong Opinion (11/2), Brioni (11/2), Specialisation (10/1), Reveal (11/1), Eulace Peacock (12/1), Trident (12/1), Daarkom (18/1), Into Battle (50/1), Cracker Star (80/1), Bravo Two Zero (100/1), Crafty Spirit (125/1), Lord Danielson (200/1)

Lots of potential on show and the market should prove highly informative. Charlie Appleby took this event 12 months ago and can repeat the feat with POINT SUR who made a promising start when fourth over C&D recently and can build on it here. William Haggas's newcomer Daarkom is one of a clutch of newcomers who could have a say along with Ralph Beckett's Reveal, Roger Varian's Trident and the selection's stablemate Strong Opinion.
