Forecasts

Secret Des Dieux (3/1), Pure Carbon (7/2), Tapley (7/2), Chuggy (9/2), Rightsotom (11/2), Jorebel (10/1)

There should be more to come from PURE CARBON, who probably would've won by a wider margin but for a couple of late mistakes at Musselburgh and a 3 lb rise almost certainly underestimates him. Chuggy wasn't able to show what he can do at Aintree when last seen over Christmas but he will be a threat if ready to roll following a break, while Rightsotom should also have a part to play.
