Forecasts

Northcliff (11/4), Ben Y Bryn (9/2), Al Ameen (11/2), Mumayaz (13/2), Dicko The Legend (15/2), Rambuso Creek (8/1), Royal Pleasure (9/1), Walking On Clouds (22/1), Master Dandy (33/1)

A few with chances but course scorer NORTHCLIFF rates the pick of the weights so edges the vote from in-form duo Rambuso Creek and Mumayaz, who can chase home Michael Keady's 5-y-o in that order. Walking On Clouds completes the shortlist.
