Forecasts

Broomfield Present (5/4), Autonomous Cloud (2/1), Farmer's Gamble (11/2), Step Above (6/1)

None of the quartet can be ruled out but Kim Bailey's low-mileage 7-y-o BROOMFIELD PRESENT is fancied to build on the promise of his Exeter third and get off the mark in this sphere. Fergal O'Brien's improving Autonomous Cloud rates a big threat on his return though, while it would come as no surprise to see both Step Above and Farmer's Gamble take a big step forward from their most recent efforts.
