Forecasts

Rocky's Treasure (10/3), Minella Aris (9/2), Perform (6/1), Verygoodverygood (13/2), Tea Time Fred (8/1), Oscarteea (9/1), Going For Broke (10/1), Out Sam (11/1), Driftwood Haze (12/1), Virtuel D'oudon (12/1), Kris Spin (12/1), You Say What (14/1), Knight Of Noir (33/1), Firebird Flyer (40/1)

Verdict

The unexposed ROCKY'S TREASURE showed a good attitude to win at Doncaster last time out and appeals as a likely type to thrive now he has found his level. There are dangers aplenty though and the likes of Perform and Minella Aris are others that have plenty of scope for improvement and do there bit to make this an interesting contest as a future reference point. Support for Tea Time Fred would also have foundation and he shouldn't be underestimated despite creeping in the race at the foot of the weights.
  1. Rocky's Treasure
  2. Perform
  3. Tea Time Fred
