Forecasts

Alnasl (11/4), Heart Of Gold (4/1), Traveller (5/1), Natajack (6/1), Beaconsfield (6/1), Diamond Bear (8/1), Unit of Assessment (10/1), Lord Commander (20/1)

Beaconsfield would be interesting if supported, though is hard to fancy on racecourse form, while Unit Of Assessment could come back to form today if the tongue strap proves to be beneficial. Traveller and Al Nasl have each-way claims again, while Natajack is back on a handy mark and a win would not surprise. However, HEART OF GOLD remains a filly with a bit of potential and with better ground to help her, she might be capable of recording a maiden success today.
