Forecasts

Sam Red (2/1), Kelvingrove (7/2), Nobuttaboy (4/1), Saint John Henry (6/1), Nautical Nitwit (7/1), Minstrels Gallery (9/1)

Sam Red's run behind Ami Desbois at Wetherby reads well in context and he should be thereabouts, who the suggestion here is MINSTRELS GALLERY. Lucy Wadham's runners are in good form and this eight-year-old is unexposed at this trip and should go very well. Nobuttaboy looks next best. 1. Minstrels Gallery 2. Sam Red 3. Nobuttaboy
