Forecasts

Sign Of War (7/2), Shanty Alley (9/2), Anywayyoulookatit (5/1), Buster Edwards (5/1), Troed Y Melin (7/1), Cyclop (8/1), Big Meadow (9/1), Granitic (12/1), Smuggler's Blues (28/1), Iron Horse (33/1), Chimes Of Dylan (100/1)

Preference is for SHANTY ALLEY, who was 12 lengths adrift of Anywayyoulookatit at Uttoxeter last month, but is entitled to come on for that seasonal reappearance and meets Jonjo O'Neill's charge on 7 lb better terms here. Sign of War, a C&D winner in January, remains unexposed in this sphere and is feared most on the back of a solid effort over hurdles last week.
