Forecasts

Hollywood Road (13/8), Celebration Day (5/2), Alcatraz (7/2), Calvados Spirit (4/1), Classic Villager (11/2), Ogbourne Downs (14/1), The Twisler (16/1), Udogo (33/1)

A number here with decent claims, but marginal preference is for CELEBRATION DAY who is forgiven a poor run on the A/W last time and on the balance of his form has a solid chance. Alcatraz should on the premises again and run his race, a comment that applies equally to Hollywood Road, whose shrewd handler is a rare visitor here. Classic Villager could be a danger if repeating his improved first run of the term, The Twisler is the joker in the pack off his lowly mark at a shorter trip, while Ogbourne Downs is also respected after a good comeback run last time.
