Forecasts
Heard That (5/2), President Scottie (9/2), High Treason (5/1), One More Stroke (6/1), Olivers Travels (13/2), Wal Buck's (9/1), Next Left (10/1), Kandor (12/1), Half Track (14/1), Wearelongterm (25/1)
The most interesting of these is WAL BUCK'S, who has low-mileage for a 6-y-o and he did the job well when getting off the mark over fences at Haydock during the winter. His jumping wasn't so slick next time but it's easy to forgive that given his otherwise progressive profile. Olivers Travels and One More Stroke may emerge as the main dangers, assuming Next Left, who ran here on Wednesday, doesn't take his chance.

- OLIVERS TRAVELS (IRE)
