Forecasts

Diamond Guy (1/4), Djarkevi (4/1), Baby Ted (6/1), Duc Kauto (7/1), Darlyn (25/1), Cold Weston (25/1), Blackjacktennessee (100/1), Nellemani (100/1)

Darlyn certainly has the potential to improve with time although this trip and track maybe on the sharp side for now. Any kind of market confidence behind Duc Kauto should be taken seriously as the yard were having a quiet spell during his runs in bumpers. DIAMOND GUY won really well though at Wincanton and is likely to be very tough to beat once again despite his penalty.
