Forecasts

Constantine Bay (1/1), Prime Venture (7/2), Affaire D'Honneur (7/2), Lord Bryan (12/1), Smoking Dixie (12/1), Pop Rockstar (20/1), Pinnacle Peter (40/1), Sydney De Baune (66/1), Fearsome Fred (100/1), Dirty Dexter (100/1)

Verdict

A penalty makes life tougher for CONSTANTINE BAY but there was a lot to like about his win at Haydock both visually and in terms of attitude and further improvement looks likely. Affaire D’Honneur sets a fair standard on form especially on his run in the Betfair Hurdle but there is a suspicion he’s proving awkward of late and not one to get too involved with at shortish odds. Both Smoking Dixie and Pop Rockstar look to have ability and it will be interesting to see how they run with a view to the future. Prime Venture has shown a fair level of form and is another who will be expected to make a forward move in form terms. 1. Constantine Bay 2. Prime Venture 3. Smoking Dixie
