Forecasts

Soldierofthestorm (4/1), Gold For Alec (9/2), Salley Gardens (5/1), Golden Ambition (13/2), Jazz King (17/2), Kintail (10/1), Jubilant (10/1), Royal King (12/1), Through The Ages (14/1), Thunderclap (16/1), Teorie (16/1), Masked Dance (18/1), Windsurfer (20/1), Colonial Empire (40/1), No But I Will (50/1)

This could go the way of GOLD FOR ALEC who arrives at the top of his game and can resume winning ways on the back of a good Chepstow third (form been franked). Golden Ambition is also enjoying a productive season and heads the list of dangers, although the likes of Through The Ages, Jazz King and Salley Gardens also need factoring into this very open handicap.
