Forecasts

Roman Dragon (7/2), Paws For Thought (4/1), Call Me Ginger (11/2), Hyperfocus (7/1), Zarzyni (7/1), Spoof (15/2), Democracy Dilemma (8/1), Lihou (8/1), Count D'Orsay (11/1), Night On Earth (14/1), Dare To Hope (16/1), King Of Tonga (20/1), Evocative Spark (40/1)

A very open sprint so at the likely odds it is worth siding with CALL ME GINGER to build on the promise of his recent Sandown seventh and capitalise on a reduced mark. Spoof is enjoying an excellent season and this C&D winner rates a big threat, while Roman Dragon, Count d'Orsay and King of Tonga all need shortlisting too.
