Forecasts

Cheque En Blanc (6/4), Cheltenam De Vaige (5/2), Oscar's Song (10/3), Rob Robin (4/1), Kenyan (8/1), Jebs Gamble (16/1), Ochos Rios (20/1), Dizzey Heights (25/1), Sixties Idol (33/1), Onehelluvatouch (40/1), Yorkshire Star (40/1), Ermyn's Emerald (50/1), Boethius (50/1)

Top weight Jebs Gamble looks to have been harshly treated by the handicapper so Cheltenam De Vaige, on his first start for his in-form yard, looks a better option. Both may struggle against ROB ROBIN, who is taken to confirm recent C&D form with Kenyan. Any support for Cheque En Blanc would be significant, a remark which also applies to Onehelluvatouch. Ochos Rios and Oscar's Song are others to consider.
