Forecasts

Cephalus (85/40), Mr Mistoffelees (4/1), Shahbaz (11/2), Kracking (11/2), Master Of Combat (10/1), Grabajabba (14/1), The Cookstown Cafu (16/1), Forever Proud (22/1), Starliner (25/1), Clear Angel (25/1), Delicacy (28/1), Shaw Park (33/1)

SHAHBAZ is potentially very well handicapped and is given a chance to build on an encouraging run at Kempton 17 days ago. Cephalus also shaped as if back in form when second at Chelmsford last month and is feared most ahead of the front-running Kracking, who may see things out better back at a bare 1m.
