Forecasts

Rolling Maul (10/3), Slim Pickens (4/1), Luccombe Down (9/2), A Boy Named Suzi (5/1), Driftwood Haze (8/1), Buckle Street (9/1), Mr Shantu (12/1), Mighty Missile (20/1)

Verdict

MR SHANTU and Slim Pickens are two course specialists who can be relied upon to produce a good effort. The former is closely matched with recent Bath winner Rolling Maul on running here last June and may have improved since. The trainer/jockey combination are in good form as a team at present and he gets the nod. Slim Pickens shaped last time as though he was ready for this trip and should be in the mix again. A Boy Name Suzi and Rolling Maul are capable on their day but they are becoming less frequent.
  1. Mr Shantu
  2. Slim Pickens
  3. Rolling Maul
