Forecasts

Animal (5/2), Hudson De Grugy (7/2), Copperhead (4/1), Trincomalee (15/2), Special Acceptance (8/1), Yes Indeed (10/1), Fern Hill (14/1), Bretney (16/1), I See You Well (16/1), Placenet (18/1)

A few of these arrive with question marks against them so this looks a good opportunity for ANIMAL to quickly resume winning ways and bag a second C&D success. Course-scorer Hudson de Grugy is feared most if, as expected, building on his reappearance third here over a much shorter trip, while the consistent duo Copperhead and Special Acceptance need factoring in too.
