Forecasts

Wild Nephin (11/10), Night Jet (9/4), Home And Dry (5/1), Happy Returns (11/2), Walkinthecotswolds (6/1), Taritino (12/1), Arctic Angel (16/1), Quite The Getaway (18/1), Mambo Beat (28/1), Tintagel Queen (40/1), Grandmaster Flash (100/1)

It's fair to say that NIGHT JET has already had plenty of chances but he is nevertheless appealing in a race of this nature. Indeed, he at least arrives here in good form whereas many of his rivals have questions to answer for one reason or another. Home And Dry could be a threat on his handicap debut in this sphere and is second choice ahead of Walkinthecotswolds, for whom there was a valid excuse at Ffos Las last time, and Taritino.
