Forecasts

Purple Martini (7/2), Without Delay (7/2), Gobi Sunset (13/2), Pembrokeshire (7/1), Code Purple (15/2), Darbucks (15/2), Going Underground (9/1), Concert Boy (14/1), Urban Dandy (20/1), Ignac Lamar (20/1), Keep Me Stable (33/1)

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and WITHOUT DELAY is taken to quickly resume winning ways on the back of his good recent Thirsk third. Southwell second Urban Dandy is feared most now the cheekpieces go back on, with C&D winners Pembrokeshire and Purple Martini also in the mix.
