Synchronist looks the standout in this small Market Rasen field, with our ratings putting him 21 lb clear of Forcetoreckonwith, a gap that should count for plenty over 19 furlongs on good ground. Forcetoreckonwith is the main danger, with Cap Ricochet only two pounds further back and Helios Allen also needing to be respected if the principal runners underperform. Golly Gosh looks outclassed, so the contest should revolve around those rated closest to our pick. Synchronist is the confident selection.
