Forecasts
Rare Change (4/1), Eldrickjones (4/1), Native Warrior (5/1), Dosman (7/1), Talis Evolvere (8/1), Kingdom Come (17/2), City Walk (12/1), Telemark (16/1), Grey's Monument (16/1), Jouncy (22/1), Zip (22/1), Tiger Mask (25/1), Streets Of Gold (40/1)
RARE CHANGE quickly resumed winning ways in good style at Pontefract last week so looks the one to beat under a penalty. Native Warrior continues to be of interest in handicaps and now goes in headgear, while City Walk has been off for a while but he has an excellent record on the AW and represents an in-form yard.
