Forecasts

Always Archie (10/11), Broken Eagle (9/4), Abbey Lane (15/2), Proximo (9/1), Spessartine (25/1), Legend To Be (33/1)

If only Broken Eagle could transfer his point-to-point form to hunter chases he would be a major force in this sphere. His profile suggests that is unlikely so ALWAYS ARCHIE is a more reliable proposition. He has run two good races for connections and can return to winning ways. Abbey Lane may be the one to chase him home, while Proximo is of some interest in first-time cheekpieces.
