Forecasts

Grey Gold (4/5), Flying Eagle (2/1), Red Riverman (4/1), King Alfonso (20/1), Magical Man (25/1)

Official figures suggest this is a penalty kick for Grey Gold, and that may prove the case, but he's 12-years-old and needed his reappearance last year, so it may pay to take him on at the likely prohibitive odds. FLYING EAGLE, who was progressing well until coming unstuck in a hot handicap at Uttoxeter, is put forward as the alternative with C&D winner Red Riverman also respected.
