Forecasts

Nathan (4/5), Native Prospect (3/1), Alexander M (4/1), Count Calabash (5/1), Drumochter (14/1)

For a race that only has a small field we could see a decent pace here with Alexander M and Native Prospect likely to go forward and that could well set the race up for NATHAN. He looks a real improver for the Alan King yard with a 6lb rise in the handicap not looking to hold him back. Drumochter should be more at home on this softer surface and is given a chance to show that her Bath win was her real form.
