Forecasts

Golden Rainbow (9/4), Sherdil (7/2), Blackcurrent (4/1), Tantastic (11/2), Another Angel (10/1), Hard Nut (10/1), Rockley Point (14/1), Independent Beauty (33/1)

Plenty of the regulars for this sort of contest here, with GOLDEN RAINBOW fancied to strike again after his victory from Another Angel over C&D 3 weeks ago. Sherdil took the second division of that race and can go well again. Last year's winner Rockley Point is another to consider.
