Forecasts

Warriors Story (9/4), Miss Wachit (4/1), Shadows In The Sky (11/2), Hey Brother (8/1), Edgewell (17/2), Ring Pretender (9/1), Rory's Story (10/1), Backbyjet (20/1)

With a dearth of credible candidates on show, WARRIORS STORY is much the most likely winner on the back of his creditable C&D effort 17 days ago when returning from a five-month absence. The 8-y-o has been eased a further 3 lb since and the drying ground will aid his cause. Miss Wachit and Shadows In The Sky can do battle for minor place money.
