Forecasts

Methag (4/1), Booborowie (4/1), Graceful Lady (5/1), Fitzwilly (8/1), Picture Painter (8/1), Against The Odds (8/1), Our Cilla (10/1), Becca Campbell (12/1), Gravity Wave (12/1), Bird For Life (14/1), Danglydontask (18/1), The Lords Walk (20/1), Splash Around (28/1), Cousin Khee (33/1), Ablaze (40/1)

An open race where Graceful Lady can be relied upon to be thereabouts again but remains hard to win with. It would be no surprise to see Methag come out on top and along with Fitzwilly may be a touch high in the handicap but look likely to be involved again. Slight preference is for AGAINST THE ODDS who made a big move out wide at Lingfield and paid for that late on. He's due a win and remains well handicapped.
