Forecasts

More Thunder (2/1), Battle Queen (9/4), Westridge (10/3), First Officer (7/2), Zozimus (6/1), Siempre Arturo (13/2), Shamran (8/1), Magnum Opus (10/1), Monkey Island (10/1), Sweet Reward (11/1), Beylerbeyi (14/1), Mortlake (14/1), Civil Law (20/1), Gloucestershire (20/1)

Chances can be given to plenty, but the suggestion is MAGNUM OPUS, who shaped as if still in good form when fifth at Doncaster just under a fortnight ago and Simon & Ed Crisford's 3-y-o likely has a bigger effort in his locker. More Thunder progressed another chunk when runner-up at Chester a couple of months ago, so he can provide most resistance to the selection, with Westridge and Gloucestershire another couple worth considering, too.
