Forecasts

Wearelongterm (2/1), Sir Carnegie (11/4), Auchinlek (11/2), Twp Stori (11/2), Boolamore Classic (6/1), Jirko (11/1), Knightphase (12/1), Joie More (14/1), Jo Arengeot Bey Aa (40/1)

Verdict

A number of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks an excellent opportunity for SIR CARNEGIE to follow up his emphatic Newcastle success and concede weight all round. Wearelongterm remains without a victory but could emerge as the main danger to Mickey Bowen's five-year-old ahead of the lightly-raced Auchinlek.
