Forecasts

Melon (5/4), Zimmerman (7/2), Spartan Times (13/2), Tabasko (13/2), Carthusian (9/1), Risk Averse Rebel (10/1), Dream Harder (20/1), Bulldog Spirit (25/1), Al Za'ama (33/1), Kindly Queen (66/1), Wiltshire Wonder (80/1), Talka (150/1)

Verdict

MELON presumably has good handicap hurdles as his main aim in the coming months, but it's worth taking a chance that he's tuned up enough to take advantage of what should be a good mark in this sphere. The thriving Zimmerman is the second choice ahead of Spartan Times.

  1. MELON (GER)
  2. ZIMMERMAN
  3. SPARTAN TIMES
