Forecasts

Tomkevi (13/8), Rolling Thunder (2/1), Sweet Belle (4/1), Cooper's Friend (9/2), Westend Theatre (25/1)

Verdict

A small field, but each of the five runners can be considered for one reason or another. ROLLING THUNDER is likely to force the pace, and looks competitive on the strength of a couple of decent efforts this year. Sweet Belle is on the up, and this slight drop in trip may play to her strengths, in a race which looks a shade more competitive than the one she won recently. Cooper's Friend will be better on this ground, whilst Westend Theatre has claims on his previous effort here in March 2016, and might be stronger for his Carlisle reappearance. However, Tomkevi looks like giving the selection most to do with his trainer in good form if proving equally effective over this longer trip on slightly quicker ground than is ideal.
