Forecasts

Joseph (11/4), Blue Wonder (7/2), Imperial Trooper (18/5), Bellasio (4/1), Lesrico (6/1), Golspie (6/1), Norflondonforever (10/1), Hill O Rue (12/1), Red Derek (14/1), Pol Roger (16/1), Everyoneknowsadave (16/1), Give Me The Night (20/1), Dragonflame (40/1)

Course winner POL ROGER shaped as though the run was needed when eighth on his Thirsk reappearance so is fancied to take a step forward here and capitalise on a reduced mark. Bellasio should also strip fitter for his recent Southwell sixth after an absence and could emerge as the main danger ahead of Hill O Rue and Everyoneknowsadave in this wide open handicap.
