Forecasts

Havana Blue (11/4), Mr Writer (7/2), Illy's Roo (6/1), Walson's Law (10/1), King Of War (12/1), Be Frank (12/1), Gallant (12/1), Tex (14/1), Dapper Guest (16/1), H Key Lails (16/1), Mystic Moment (20/1), Independent Expert (25/1), Wield (25/1)

Verdict

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and James Fanshawe's improving MR WRITER is fancied to make light of a 4 lb rise for a recent Leicester victory and bag a third success from his last 4 starts. Havana Blue is feared most on the back of a good C&D second ahead of Be Frank and King of War.

  1. MR WRITER (IRE)
  2. HAVANA BLUE
  3. BE FRANK
