Forecasts

Paddy The Chef (7/2), Born To Reason (4/1), Esspeegee (9/2), King Athelstan (13/2), Roy Rocket (7/1), Neff (7/1), Amanto (12/1), Contingency Fee (14/1), Star Of Athena (18/1), Kirtling (20/1), Rose Crown (20/1), River Dart (28/1)

This is very competitive for the money and you can make cases for plenty of them. Contingency Fee and Esspeegee both have good form at the track and the latter looks dangerously well handicapped at present, so any money for him needs noting. Paddy The Chef comes into this in good form and looks an obvious candidate, but ROY ROCKET's love affair with Brighton may well continue today. He dropped a huge hint at Windsor last time and if he's now found his form, is going to be hard to beat from a low-looking handicap mark.
