Forecasts

City Walk (5/2), Fortamour (3/1), Tinto (13/2), Mark's Choice (15/2), Intrinsic Bond (8/1), Tipperary Tiger (8/1), Huddle Up (11/1), Bossipop (14/1), Mr Lupton (20/1), Flying Pursuit (33/1)

A competitive handicap. CITY WALK is still quite lightly raced as sprinters go and was a convincing winner at Chelmsford last time so he may be capable of defying a rise in the weights. Fortamour's excellent C&D record makes him an obvious threat. Bossipop is another who knows where the winning post is over this C&D and it would be no surprise to see Tim Easterby's front-runner make a bold bid from the rail draw.
