Forecasts

Captain Cool (10/11), Krak (5/2), Roadlesstravelled (7/2), Ice In The Veins (14/1)

CAPTAIN COOL has already had a fine season and having been found another small-field scenario, he may well shrug off a 5 lb rise. Krak should be a factor tackling a more suitable distance, while Roadlesstravelled certainly has the profile of one who will make a better chaser.
