Forecasts

Eupator (1/1), Shihoku (4/1), Towerlands (5/1), Charlie's Choice (13/2), Commander Of Life (9/1), Urban Road (25/1), Spirit Lead Me (40/1)

A competitive handicap but it's hard to ignore the claims of EUPATOR who is improving fast and fancied to make light of a 5 lb penalty and rattle off a quick hat-trick here. James Owen's Shihoku is next on the list with Charlie's Choice, Towerlands and Urban Road the pick of the rest in the battle for minor honours.
