Forecasts

Shantou Village (85/40), Singlefarmpayment (9/2), Sir Ivan (8/1), Strong Pursuit (8/1), Present Man (17/2), The Kings Writ (9/1), West Approach (9/1), Valadom (10/1), Colorado Doc (16/1), Sizing Codelco (33/1)

Verdict

PRESENT MAN was below his best at Warwick in November, yet that came on the back of another solid display in the Badger Ales previously and, having been given time since, he may well get back to winning ways now (boasts a good record fresh). Sir Ivan is going through a consistent spell and is feared, along with West Approach and likeable front-runner Valadom.
