Forecasts

Indalo (1/1), Longhaired General (4/1), Quiet Resolve (9/2), Tempus (6/1), Dingle (9/1)

INDALO looks to start handicaps on a good mark so Roger Varian's 4-y-o is fancied to go 3-3. Fellow C&D scorer Dingle is weighted to have a say while Longhaired General is another with winning form at the track who is also worth considering.
