Forecasts

As You Like (5/2), Butlergrove King (4/1), Full Shift (4/1), Mille Nautique (9/2), Moorlands Jack (6/1), Candy Burg (10/1), Mitebeall Forluck (33/1)

AS YOU LIKE has less doubts to overcome given he in tremendous form and went well in defeat here last time. It is hard to be enthusiastic about the rest given doubts about the wellbeing of Candy Burg and the mental attitude of Mille Nautique. Course specialist Moorlands Jack is hardly well-handicapped but still poses a bigger threat than Full Shift and Mitebeall Forluck.The market should tell us how fit Butlergrove King is following a lengthy break.
