Forecasts

The Kemble Brewery (9/4), Palacio (4/1), Ben Solo (5/1), Roysse (5/1), Southoftheborder (11/1), Star Of Affinity (11/1), The Winslow Boy (14/1), My Friend Sean (22/1), Tarahumara (25/1), Boyles Hill (33/1)

ROYSSE is very much the sort to take to chasing and his yard has sent out 7 first-time-out winners in the last week alone. The Kemble Brewery has a similar profile to the selection so is feared, while My Friend Sean should leave his chase bow behind in due course.
