Forecasts
The Grey Lad (2/1), Story Rory (5/1), Guido Reni (5/1), Innisfree Beauty (11/2), Hophornbeam (6/1), Fassbender (7/1), Snugsborough Benny (16/1), Endlessly (16/1), Abraham (33/1)
Course-winner INNISFREE BEAUTY can race off a 6 lb lower mark than when posting a decent eighth at Galway last time out so looks the way to go here. Fassbender hails from an in-form yard and is feared most back in this sphere, with Guido Reni weighted to have a say too despite arriving on a long losing run.
