Forecasts

So Many Roads (3/1), Hashtag Boum (10/3), Imaginary Dragon (9/2), Dunnet Head (7/1), Schalke (7/1), Kingston Bridge (15/2), Mack The Man (12/1), Paddy The Horse (33/1)

This looks competitive. DUNNET HEAD can't have been right last time and might be worth another chance as his Carlisle win prior to that was promising. Hashtag Boum shaped encouragingly at Sedgefield last time and is much respected back at the scene of her win in April. Imaginary Dragon should also get involved if his stamina holds now stepping up in trip, while Kingston Bridge also shaped well at Hexham last time.
