Forecasts

Build A Bridge (11/4), Chantilly Wings (7/2), Zuzukel (4/1), Pavilion End (11/2), Houndsworth (13/2), Silly Mongoose (8/1), Somersby Roost (10/1), Arctic Piper (12/1), Sonny May (14/1), Cometothinkofit (20/1), Beyond Forgiveness (22/1), Kingston Silver (125/1)

Verdict

ZUZUKEL went mightily close to opening his account here last season so Tony Martin's 6-y-o gets the tentative vote to go one better on return over Pavilion End, who has been in good order on the level and looks a potential improver now sent down the handicap route. Chantilly Wings and Houndsworth can fight out minor honours.

  1. ZUZUKEL (FR)
  2. PAVILION END
