Forecasts

Midnight Gypsy (4/1), Atlantic King (5/1), King Of Milan (11/2), Seeanythingyoulike (6/1), Whipcord (6/1), Clo Sacre (6/1), Hardtorock (9/1), Midnight Queen (16/1), Orchestrated (50/1)

Hard to be confident about any of this field with plenty of questions to be answered by the majority of them and SEEANYTHINGYOULIKE on his chasing debut and looked to building up to something over hurdles is the suggestion. Whipcord drops in grade and with the blinkers on for the first time makes some appeal and it’s not hard to think that Clo Sacre may be better than his form so far. Midnight Gypsy is another to throw in the mix and may be able to get competitive off a comparatively lowly mark with Atlantic King looking to run a big race last time out but far from certain to back this up.
