Forecasts

Ask For Glory (4/6), Born To Sting (6/1), Imperial Esprit (8/1), Financier (8/1), Move Above (8/1), Big Nasty (10/1), Wilde Water (22/1), Spanish Starling (33/1), Scenemaker (50/1)

Given the fact that connections paid £280,000 for him after he made a winning debut between the flags, ASK FOR GLORY could be the one to land the finale given his trainer's fine course record. Previous winner Move Above will provide a good yardstick to the form and will be there to expose any inexperience in the selection, while Big Nasty is fancied the be thereabouts having caught the eye running creditably on debut at Haydock.
