Forecasts

Benatar (15/8), Dolos (11/4), One For Billy (3/1), Rocklander (4/1), Le Rocher (5/1), Beggar's Wishes (8/1)

A good-quality contest for the time of year. One For Billy steps up in grade, but receives weight all round and that gives him a chance alongside similarly-progressive rivals in Le Rocher and Beggar's Wishes. Rocklander is a bit hit and miss, though is capable on his day, but the two to concentrate on are Dolos and BENATAR, with marginal preference for the latter, who boasts placed form at the Cheltenham Festival and can concede weight all round.
