Forecasts
Imperial Bede (11/10), Glencassley (6/4), Noche Negra (15/8), Clonakilty (10/3), Eyed (5/1)
None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to GLENCASSLEY who impressed when going in at the first time of asking over fences at Hereford and can make light of a 3 lb weights rise. Clonakilty could emerge as the chief threat ahead of in-form pair Imperial Bede and Eyed.
