Forecasts

Innisfree Lad (2/1), Go Whatever (4/1), Eden Du Houx (7/1), Crossley Tender (8/1), Tea Time On Mars (8/1), Cobolobo (12/1), Butterwick Brook (12/1), Le Boizelo (12/1), Telson Barley (16/1), Caltex (22/1), Arthur's Gift (22/1), Ocean Cove (25/1), Mcnamaras Band (40/1), St Erney (100/1)

A case can be made for a few but at the likely odds GO WHATEVER is taken to build on an eye-catching reappearance fourth on his chasing bow at Ascot and edge out the well-weighted Innisfree Lad who bids for a remarkable fifth win of the campaign. Crossley Tender is another enjoying a fine season and he can make his presence felt along with course-winner Tea Time On Mars in a cracking handicap.
