Forecasts

Grand Enterprise (5/1), Lake Shore Drive (6/1), County Road (6/1), Improved (6/1), Phare Isle (9/1), Overtoujay (9/1), Next Lot (10/1), Bored Or Bad (11/1), Mahler Bay (20/1), Blue Cove (22/1), Lucky Thirteen (25/1), Tennessee Bird (25/1)

Verdict

A truly desperate contest for a track such as Doncaster, but there has to be a winner, although picking which of these twelve this winner will be is no easy task. Phare Isle is falling in the weights but with good reason, whilst fellow twelve-year-old Blue Cove was runner up in this in 2016. Lake Shore Drive could improve for the switch to this yard at this trip, but a real-flier is taken on the eye catching jockey booking of Richard Johnson on handicap debutant COUNTY ROAD. 1. County Road 2. Lake Shore Drive 3. Improved
