Forecasts

Skandiburg (8/11), Bang Bang Rosie (3/1), Copper Gone West (7/1), Three Bullet Gate (10/1), Celtic Joy (16/1), Parsonal (20/1)

An interesting race in prospect, with easy Irish point-to-point winner Copper Gone West one to note in the market and Bang Bang Rosie perhaps having achieved most so far, but at the same time relatively exposed. Therefore SKANDIBURG, who showed plenty of promise at Wetherby, is taken to find sufficient improvement to break his duck. Celtic Joy looks a potential improver.
