Forecasts

Some Are Lucky (6/4), City Supreme (4/1), Somchine (6/1), Little Jon (6/1), Bramble Brook (6/1), Vivaccio (10/1), Casper King (14/1)

Casper King is a talented horse who is of interest on his return following wind surgery, while cases can be made for Bramble Brook, Some Are Lucky, Somchine and Vivaccio. However, the two to fight it out may be Little Jon, who is well handicapped and has been hinting at a return to form, and CITY SUPREME. The latter is unexposed over fences and can be competitive off this mark under his top-class jockey.
