Forecasts

Cap Du Mathan (11/10), Firak (3/1), The Big Lense (7/2), Drakes Well (12/1), Cooldine Bog (25/1), Tap Tap Boom (28/1), Boughtbeforelunch (40/1)

This switch to a hunter could be just the tonic for CAP DU MATHAN, who hasn't covered himself in glory the last twice but a reproduction of his reappearance effort in a strong Ascot handicap chase would make him very hard to beat. The Big Lense appeals most for forecast purposes ahead of Firak.
