Forecasts

Samarquand (6/4), Shannon Hill (7/4), Geordie B (4/1), Annie Bonny (10/1), Burn Baby Byrne (16/1)

Evan Williams has a 3-6 record in this but his two mares, Annie Bonny and Burn Baby Byrne, face difficult tasks here against the boys. Geordie B is one to watch in the market with his yard back amongst the winners but this should be fought out between Shannon Hill and SAMARQUAND. The former is flattered by his achievements to date but his fitness advantage and proven stamina have to be respected. Nevertheless, the selection looked a good prospect when taking a hot bumper on debut and his pedigree dictates he should do even better now jumping over this sort of trip.
