Forecasts

Solomon Grey (8/11), Cause Toujours (3/1), River Bray (5/1), Lungarno Palace (9/1)

In receipt of 6lb a chance is taken that chasing debutant RIVER BRAY can land the spoils. He has been in good form over timber and may well be up to winning over larger obstacles at the first time of asking. The penalised Solomon Grey beat one modest rival in a match on his chasing bow was was a talented hurdler and rates a danger. It's hard to rule out either of the other two who are both fair performers over timber, but Lungarno Palace may prove better than Cause Toujours at this game.
