Forecasts
The Grafter (5/2), The Grey Man (16/5), New Found Fame (6/1), Risk D'Argent (13/2), Bellbird (17/2), Feel The Pinch (12/1), Falco Des Pins (14/1), The Secret Pearl (20/1), Serious Ego (20/1), Clinton Lane (25/1), El Jefe (28/1), Imperial Storm (100/1)
A case can be made for a few of these but the vote goes to THE GREY MAN who impressed when going in at Leicester and can make light of a 4 lb rise. The Grafter rates a big threat though on the back of his promising Haydock second, while Risk d'Argent, Clinton Lane and The Secret Pearl all need factoring in too.
