Forecasts

Laoisman (5/4), Star Of Lady M (7/2), The Thames Boatman (5/1), Harry Brown (11/2), Almaty Star (8/1), Ancient Times (8/1), Mick's Spirit (16/1)

LAOISMAN came up agonisingly short in his quest for a 4-timer at Windsor 3 weeks ago but that performance was another personal best and he can overcome a small rise in the weights. Star of Lady M and Ancient Times have leading jockeys taking over from claimers and head the opposition.
