Forecasts

Wise Eagle (5/2), Moonbow (7/2), Fasol (4/1), Smokeringinthedark (11/2), Serious Chat (9/1), Bel Amigo (12/1), Chanonry Point (16/1), Bold Light (20/1), Heart Above (28/1)

Verdict

A competitive renewal. FASOL has some solid form in the book this season and he can follow up his Wincanton success on return to a handicap. Moonbow may not be entirely straightforward but he's progressing and looks a serious danger along with unexposed Chanonry Point, who is 2-2 on this course and could have more to offer now handicapping over a longer trip.
