Forecasts

Flight Of Angels (1/1), Emperor's Clothes (4/1), Daarree (4/1), Ectocross (4/1), Ezmerellda (11/2), Feyha (14/1), Chindwin (25/1), Biscoff Joe (50/1), Duke Of Vienna (100/1), Melwood Boy (125/1)

FLIGHT OF ANGELS has a solid record in handicaps over this trip and might be able to notch a second success of the year. Daarree was better than the result at Kempton last time and had run well on handicap debut prior to that so he's a probable threat. Unexposed-pair Emperor's Clothes and Ezmerellda are other interesting contenders.
