Forecasts

Low Expectations (1/2), No More Bolero (7/4), Thankyouandplease (13/2), Inferno Sacree (15/2), Hill Station (8/1), Gregorians Star (18/1), Voix De Bocelli (20/1), Castle Quarter (33/1)

The standout candidates are LOW EXPECTATIONS and No More Bolero, both of whom make strong appeal under penalties for their recent victories at Windsor and Ludlow respectively. Preference is for the former, who appears to be firmly on the up and the hat-trick beckons for this 5-y-o. Inferno Sacree has C&D winning form and is best of the rest.
