Forecasts

Bertie Blake (7/2), Rocku (4/1), Border Victor (6/1), Wig Wam Wiggle (13/2), Nicely Indeed (7/1), Espoir Moriviere (8/1), Witness (10/1), Chocolat Noir (11/1), Lammturner (20/1), Sory (20/1), K O Kenny (20/1), No Boundaries (28/1), Discay (33/1), Rowdy Robin (33/1), Luvly Boy Blue (33/1)

Verdict

Interesting to see if the money comes again for Rocku but he will have to leave his Market Rasen run behind and preference is for ESPOIR MORIVIERE who bids to give Rose Dobbin a third consecutive win in this race. If turning out again Nicely Indeed will be a threat despite his welter burden
  1. Espoir Moriviere
  2. Nicely Indeed
  3. Rocku
