Forecasts

Get The Beat (6/4), Saint Anapolino (7/4), Stone's Throw (9/2), Give Me A Boom (15/2), Theatre Tom (28/1), Delgany Deadline (28/1), Bold Jury (33/1), Strong As Steel (40/1), Eagles Gold (50/1), Joto (125/1), Intertwine (150/1), Too Cool Forshrule (150/1), Tarbuck (200/1), Jamesieconn (200/1)

SAINT ANAPOLINO has shaped well on his three runs under Rules to date and this point bumper scorer is taken to get off the mark in this sphere at the chief expense of Dan Skelton's Blue Bresil newcomer Delgany Deadline. Stone's Throw and Get The Beat look the duo best equipped to fight it out for minor honours.
