Forecasts

Valseur Du Granval (2/1), Pain Au Chocolat (5/2), Ut Majeur Aulmes (11/4), Duke Of Navan (5/1), Mr Mole (20/1)

A small field, but a competitive race. Duke of Navan clearly possesses the class to dispatch these rivals, but he's nine now and is returning from a lengthy absence. Similar question marks persist for Pain Au Chocolat who has been switched to Rebecca Menzies as his owners seek to get his career back on path, whilst Mr Mole is often simply Mr Mole nowadays. Therefore, the southern based raiders look set to battle it out for the prize, with both UT MAJEUR AULMES and Valseur Du Granval likely to revel on a decent racing surface. The former is a course winner in April 2014, and with the application of cheek-pieces most likely helpful, he gets the vote with Nick Scholfield aboard.
