Forecasts

Knights Charge (2/1), Besieged (9/2), Bourbon Blues (7/1), Stoneacre Donny (8/1), Runman (9/1), Strength of Spirit (11/1), Spyce (12/1), King Of Earth (12/1), Wild Thoughts (20/1), Sintra (22/1), Darius Dark (50/1)

Verdict

This is wide open but it could prove worth siding with Harry Charlton's improving Dubawi colt BESIEGED who spreadeagled his field when getting off the mark at Salisbury and looks to have a fair bit more to offer now stepping into handicap company. Recent impressive York victor Stoneacre Donny rates a big threat though under a 6 lb penalty, while Irish raider Darius Dark and the unexposed Knights Charge also need considering in this highly competitive event.
