Forecasts

Inthepocket (1/2), Farren Glory (4/1), Conyers Hill (12/1), Anyway (12/1), Champagne Mahler (14/1), Ballycallan King (25/1), Enjoy The Dream (33/1), Heliko Conti (33/1), Splashing Out (40/1), Spinning Web (66/1), Ifiwerearichman (80/1), Macinamillion (80/1), Drop The Anchor (125/1), Secrecies Of Stone (150/1)

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and Henry de Bromhead's highly promising INTHEPOCKET is fancied to make light of his long absence and gain a first win over fences. Gordon Elliott's chasing newcomer Farren Glory also returns from a lengthy lay-off but could emerge as the main danger ahead of Anyway and Champagne Mahler.
