Forecasts

Deputy Commander (11/4), He's A Bully (4/1), Peckhamecho (9/2), Lac Sacre (5/1), Bassarabad (7/1), Clubs Are Trumps (8/1), Paddy The Oscar (8/1), Thegreendalerocket (10/1), Loughalder (10/1)

Verdict

He comes with risks attached, but with a few of the Jonjo O'Neill handicappers refinding their form recently, the suggestion is CLUBS ARE TRUMPS, on a wininng mark if the mood takes him and should find conditions to his liking. His young apprentice ensures there's no weight on his back and he can gain a first success now the cheekpieces are back on. Lac Sacre runs his race more often than not and can pick up the silver, with Thegreendalerocket rounding out the places.
  1. Clubs Are Trumps
  2. Lac Sacre
  3. Thegreendalerocket
