Forecasts

Road To Wembley (9/4), Down To Business (5/1), Lock Stock (11/2), Trouville (8/1), Square D'alboni (11/1), Yellow Card (12/1), Media Mogul (14/1), Devon Red (14/1), Oneinthewell (16/1), Miss Kingston (18/1), So Proud (20/1), Likewhatyousee (20/1), Regarde (22/1), Who's Glen (28/1), Katarcice (40/1), Whinney Hill (100/1)

Verdict

Preference is for ROAD TO WEMBLEY, who overcame a troubled passage when scoring here last month and appeals as the type to progress further in handicap company. Course winner Down To Business has likely been aimed at this contest by his shrewd handler and is feared most, whilst Devon Red and Lock Stock are also of interest in what looks a competitive heat.

  1. ROAD TO WEMBLEY
  2. DOWN TO BUSINESS
  3. DEVON RED
