Forecasts

Marbuzet (1/1), Cavendish (10/3), Ramamaras Boy (4/1), Overstate (15/2), Wendell's Lass (20/1), Cathy's Girl (20/1), Ballynaveen Boy (25/1), Crossbeau (40/1)

RAMAMARAS BOY was strong in the betting and shaped well at Beverley last time, so it's easy-enough to see him him taking a step forward and scoring. Last-time-out winner Marbuzet is also considered, along with Cavendish and Overstate.
