Forecasts

Irish Octave (3/1), Western Wave (4/1), Golden Investment (9/2), Apache Pilot (7/1), Russborough (8/1), Little Jimmy (8/1), Twojayslad (10/1), What A Laugh (11/1), Bronco Billy (18/1), Spock (28/1), Massinis Adventure (28/1)

Apache Pilot would likely be the selection were the race being run at Hexham, where he does best, while Irish Octave is expected to go well again following a narrow success at Warwick last time but the slender vote rests with GOLDEN INVESTMENT. Donald McCain's charge had yet to play his cards when he was brought down at Kelso last time out and might be able to return to winning ways now. Massinis Adventure is one to note in the betting with a run behind him for this yard.
