Forecasts

Valhalla (5/2), Some Are Lucky (11/4), Sam Red (7/2), Braavos (4/1), Abbreviate (8/1)

Not hard to make a case for any of this quintet in what looks to be a good contest for the time of year. Abbreviate could well show more in this sphere and Sam Red has looked a winner in waiting ever since he joined this yard and he’s expected to improve on his debut. Valhalla is another of the same ilk with Braavos and exciting chase debutantes. SOME ARE LUCKY could well his experience to good use here he travels well in his races and is worth a shot here to get off the mark over fences at the fourth attempt.
