Forecasts

Amalfi Doug (10/11), Saffron Prince (7/2), Walden Prince (4/1), No No Cardinal (11/2)

Verdict

Trainer Dan Skelton has played a numbers game all summer with horses he’s rejuvenated from other yards forming the backbone of his team here and Amalfi Doug is another one making his debut for the stable. He’s sure to be well found in the market but it’s arguable how much value he offers having looked anything but a chaser before and SAFFRON PRINCE is a much safer if less sexy proposition having now had a run under his belt and is also proven off this mark. The other two are a little unreliable Walden Prince is on a long losing run and No No Cardinal has already recently seen the rear of another Skelton improver (King’s Reste).
