Forecasts

Recency Bias (10/11), Pressure's On (10/3), The Green Man (4/1), Beale Street (7/1), Rich Rhythm (14/1), William Dewhirst (25/1), Blufferonthebus (40/1), Gressington (40/1), Ey Up Its Jazz (40/1)

Preference is for PRESSURE'S ON, who shaped much better than the distance beaten suggested at Doncaster 5 weeks ago and Ed Dunlop's 5-y-o can resume his progress returned to his optimum trip. Recency Bias never really looked like justifying a short price on his recent handicap debut, but he can give the selection most to think about, with The Green Man rounding off the shortlist.
