Forecasts

Militarian (15/8), Billy Merriott (4/1), Forgot To Ask (5/1), My Charity (13/2), Samson (8/1), Seaston Spirit (9/1), Lex Talionis (16/1), Call Me Sid (16/1)

Not a lot of pace on here with Call Me Sid likely to get an easy lead. That would make him a danger if he can find some rhythm but he didn't jump with much fluency last time and may be best watched. Billy Merriott hasn't many miles on the clock for an old boy and should go close, but in the hope he puts a clear round in SEASTON SPIRIT is given the vote. He's bred for the game and was still in with every chance against two higher rated rival at Kempton last time. Militarian should run his race and take a prize home.
