Forecasts

Forest Blaze (15/8), Wor Lad (9/2), Toby Two Scoops (6/1), Eric Carmen (9/1), Ruler Legend (10/1), Caramelo Rapido (10/1), Sweeper System (12/1), Perfect Arch (18/1), Ionity (20/1), Goguenard (20/1), Suspected (20/1), Diamond Trilogy (20/1), River Rider (33/1), Knacker Trapper (50/1), Reel Rosie (50/1), Mythical (66/1)

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and TOBY TWO SCOOPS is fancied to gain a deserved breakthrough success with this step up in trip a positive and the form of his good third here having been boosted. Handicap debutants Suspected (second choice) and Sweeper System look to have more to offer and could prove the biggest threats, although Eric Carmen, Goguenard and Wor Lad need factoring in too.
