Forecasts

Glendermot (5/4), Fuhgeddaboudit (10/3), What A Joke (4/1), Mahler Lad (9/2), Smart Catch (7/1), Musical Wedge (12/1)

A race to tread carefully with. A chance is taken that the return to fences will spark SMART CATCH back into life, as he's well enough treated on old form and should have conditions to suit. Glendermot looks the obvious danger if that second at Market Rasen was the start of a revival, and the fight for third can be won by Mahler Lad.
