Forecasts
Ma Shantou (5/2), Moon Rocket (11/4), Western Knight (10/3), Jig's Forge (4/1), Gamesters Guy (7/1), Yellow Car (10/1), Sunset Hill (33/1), Frisby (50/1)
None of these can be ruled out in a cracking River Don but the vote goes to WESTERN KNIGHT who still looked a work in progress when an excellent second in a Cheltenham Grade 2 last time out and can quickly resume winning ways here. Ma Shantou could emerge as the chief threat on his first go over 3m, although Jig's Force, Yellow Car, Moon Rocket and Gamesters Guy all need factoring in too.
