Forecasts

Carntop (1/1), Normal Norman (7/2), Andok (7/2), Totterdown (5/1), Oceanus (16/1), Tenor (50/1), Beach Dancer (66/1), Mulsanne Chase (100/1)

Andok is an interesting newcomer to this sphere and a market check is needed. There is a good chance this will end up a match between Totterdown and CARNTOP with marginal preference for the latter. He was a smart performer on the last and has already shown a good level of form over hurdles so the fitness edge over the first-named may prove key.
