Forecasts

Highbury High (11/8), Muwalla (4/1), Cooper's Friend (13/2), Oliver's Hill (13/2), Brother Scott (10/1), Friendly Royal (14/1), Mahler Bay (18/1), Mr Robinson (100/1)

Very modest fayre and now that he has returned to some form perhaps HIGHBURY HIGH can prove good enough on the day. Friendly Royal is now with a yard that is putting together a good record with other trainers' cast-offs, so a market check is suggested, while Oliver's Hill and last year's winner Cooper's Friend have the ability to get involved, though it does take a leap of faith to see them winning today judged on recent efforts. Brother Scott is not totally ruled out, but he did look held by the assessor last time.
