10/3

Winner at Kempton in February and ran to a similar level when second of 9 in minor event there (11f) 21 days ago, needing stiffer test. Significantly up in trip. Can give another good account.

Forecasts

Global Wonder (5/2), Big Jimbo (10/3), Easy Equation (11/2), Gustav Holst (6/1), Abstract (9/1), Henry The Fifth (12/1), All About Alice (12/1), Huscari (14/1)

The vote goes to EASY EQUATION, who ran creditably in an appreciably stronger race than this at Southwell 17 days ago, despite not being seen to best effect. Big Jimbo is lightly raced for his age and may do better still over this longer trip, with last-time-out winner Global Wonder also feared.
