Forecasts

Some Performance (6/5), Alakazi (9/4), No Such Thing (4/1), Desmond Castle (7/1), Jet Warrior (14/1), If I Was You (25/1), Wertpol (125/1), Voice Of Northeast (200/1)

NO SUCH THING holds the best form on show so is taken to get off the mark at the fourth attempt here. Some Performance and Desmond Castle appeal as the two to give Ger Lyons' gelding most to do and can chase him home in that order.
