Forecasts

World Premier (8/13), Leomar (4/1), Lungarno Palace (11/1), Pirate Look (11/1), Royal Marskell (12/1), Sable Island (16/1), Blenheim Warrior (28/1), Macksville (33/1), Dream Baie (50/1), Pastoral Music (50/1), Romanor (66/1), Legend Of France (66/1), St George's Oval (100/1), Downloadtheapp (100/1), Dreamliner (200/1), Belle's Spirit (200/1)

Verdict

A few of these have something to prove and in particular World Premier who burst a blood vessel on his hurdling debut before jumping poorly here last time. He makes little appeal at what will probably be too short a price for the risks he carries. Pirate Look and Lungarno Palace are interesting recruits from the Flat who are worth monitoring in the market. The odds will probably tell us more about the prospects of LEOMAR who debuts for Dan Skelton. The Irish import was unlucky not to win on his last start and this looks equally as modest as that event.
  1. Leomar
  2. World Premier
  3. Pirate Look
