Forecasts

Clotherholme (6/4), Kodebreaker (9/2), Tees George (11/2), Calcutta Dream (7/1), Makalu (8/1), Barossa (12/1), Ribkana (22/1), Run Simba (25/1), Mintnthat (40/1), Missmimi (150/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which CLOTHERHOLME edges the vote on the back of his unlucky-in-running Beverley fifth provided he is none the worse for his exertions at Hamilton. Wolverhampton runner-up Kodebreaker heads the list of dangers, although a solid case can also be made for in-form pair Barossa and Calcutta Dream.
