Forecasts

Dashing Oscar (5/2), Azzerti (3/1), Loverboy (11/2), Casper King (6/1), Diable De Sivola (13/2), Vicenzo Mio (10/1), Remiluc (12/1), Magna Cartor (14/1)

Verdict

The Dan Skelton French import Loverboy is sure to be one to watch in the market and that is likely to prove the best guide to his chance on his GB debut but looking at his French form he clearly has ability. Diable De Sivola can be given a good chance here on his Cheltenham form of last year with Casper King another to throw into the equation although his mark looks stiff enough. Azzerti is another one whose mark looks stiff but does come from a yard in good form but the form when fresh attracts you to DASHING OSCAR. He might find this easier than when trying to dominate a big field on his handicap debut despite his mark still looking a testing one.
  1. Dashing Oscar
  2. Diable De Sivola
  3. Loverboy
