Forecasts

Rainbow Rebel (9/4), Gabrial's King (7/2), Jabbaar (4/1), Kazawi (6/1), Star Of The East (10/1), Faithful Mount (10/1), Vincent's Forever (10/1), Corton Lad (16/1), Plymouth Sound (25/1), Fort Jefferson (33/1), Pumaflor (50/1)

PLYMOUTH SOUND was only just beaten here when last seen and last year's winning jockey of this race takes 3lb off his back on return. Gabrial's King is well-handicapped on old form while Kazawi isn't dismissed but will have to overcome the widest draw.
