Forecasts

Shamshon (7/2), Jack Dexter (5/1), Gravity Flow (7/1), Yalta (7/1), Soie D'leau (15/2), Copper Knight (8/1), Afandem (8/1), Coolfitch (9/1), Pettochside (11/1), Robot Boy (12/1), Monsieur Joe (14/1), Top Boy (16/1), Just Glamorous (25/1), Exceed The Limit (33/1), Verne Castle (50/1)

Verdict

SOLE D'LEAU may be worth chancing and he normally gets better as the season goes on, after a promising run last time, he could be the one to beat. Shamshon looks the main danger after a lenient rise for his win last time out while Coolfitch could be the danger if they go hard enough up front.
  1. Soie D'leau
  2. Shamshon
  3. Coolfitch
