Forecasts
Shantou Rock (1/1), Wishfull Dreaming (5/2), Westendorf (4/1), Treasure The Ridge (10/1), Free Stone Hill (16/1), Sirop De Menthe (25/1), Lettheriverrundry (33/1)
There is a lot to like about WISHFULL DREAMING'S profile and there is every chance he would have won from this mark at Taunton recently had he not tipped up at the second last. This looks a decent opportunity to gain some swift compensation, though Shantou Rock is clearly a progressive sort, even if he does have something to prove away from Ludlow. Westerndorf also warrants respect over a shorter trip.
