Forecasts

Away For Slates (9/4), Reverant Cust (10/3), Mr Snoozy (7/1), Road To Rome (7/1), Only Orsenfoolsies (9/1), Thorpe (16/1), Freewheel (25/1), Glingerside (25/1), Mcvicar (28/1), Becky The Thatcher (33/1), Staigue Fort (33/1), Sir Tommy (50/1), Billy Flight (66/1), U Name It (66/1)

Verdict

Becky The Thatcher is not ruled out here but stablemate Only Orsenfoolsies is probably even more interesting today with his rider's 10lb claim to help and he could go close. Away For Slates should be capable of another competitive effort along with Mcvicar, Mr Snoozy and Thorpe. However, preference is for ROAD TO ROME, who is lightly-raced and open to improvement and his new trainer might be able to eek out enough of that first time to enable him to break his hurdling duck from a workable mark.
  1. Road To Rome
  2. Only Orsenfoolsies
  3. Away For Slates
