Forecasts

Baratablet (7/2), Captain Butler (4/1), Brookside La (4/1), Speiriuil (5/1), Judicial Deference (13/2), Jericoacoara (7/1), Rock Dj (12/1), Eloi Du Puy (14/1), Mountain Molly (16/1), Coconut Splash (18/1), Wasthatok (22/1), Thank You Blue (25/1), Bathgate (28/1), Rauzan (40/1), Kingston Narcissus (50/1), The Navigator (66/1)

This is wide open but it could pay to side with Dan Skelton's upwardly-mobile BROOKSIDE LA who is taken to resume winning ways on the back of an excellent Haydock third (form worked out well) after a break. Captain Butler is weighted to have a big say and could emerge as the chief threat, although Mountain Molly, Speiriuil, Judicial Difference and Eloi du Puy all need factoring into this highly competitive handicap, too.
