Forecasts

Rain Cap (5/2), Mr Trevor (11/4), Wade's Magic (16/5), Quercus (11/2), Ginato (13/2), Abel Handy (20/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which the vote goes to WADE'S MAGIC who can boast a course win and is on a handy-looking mark. C&D scorer Rain Cap found the step up to 1m beyond him at Doncaster and needs considering now reverted in trip along with last year's winner Quercus, who got back on track when runner-up here recently.
