Forecasts

Ejayteekay (7/2), Nearly Famous (13/2), Derby De Thaix (8/1), Highandmighty (8/1), Little Folke (8/1), Jessicor (9/1), Killasser Boy (9/1), Konig Hall (10/1), Our Rachael (10/1), Sierra Law (11/1), Misty Millie (14/1), Joy's Gift (14/1), Tildas Icon (25/1), Colonel Maximus (25/1), American Image (50/1)

Verdict

Another tricky puzzle to solve and a few potential lurkers in here. The market should be monitored and money for Our Rachael, Tildas Icon or Nearly Famous would be well worth noting. Highandmighty is on the shortlist returning from a break and back down in trip. EJAYTEEKAY travelled like much the best horse when winning over C&D last time and if they delay his run a little longer, he may well go in again.
  1. Ejayteekay
  2. Highandmighty
  3. Our Rachael
