Forecasts

Noble Robin (3/1), Black Ivory (10/3), Tommy Rapper (5/1), Theo's Charm (8/1), Top Ville Ben (8/1), Arthur's Gift (12/1), De Rasher Counter (12/1), Shantou Bob (16/1), Splash of Ginge (16/1), Isaacstown Lad (20/1), Bialco (66/1)

Theo's Charm's third behind a subsequent Grade 1 winner over C&D reads particularly well and he would have every chance if in the same form. However, there are four progressive horses in opposition in the shape of De Rasher Counter, Black Ivory, Noble Robin and TOMMY RAPPER and the latter, who has come good recently after showing plenty of promise last season, looks marginally the best option. Splash Of Ginge has been known to pop up at big prices and is not out of it.
