Forecasts

Avenue Of Stars (9/2), Epeius (9/2), Duke Cosimo (13/2), Smugglers Creek (7/1), Bobby Joe Leg (15/2), Rock Warbler (10/1), Kentuckyconnection (12/1), Rizzle Dizzle (12/1), Johnny Cavagin (14/1), Soldier Blue (16/1), My Name Is Rio (25/1), Broken Wings (50/1), Dubai Elegance (50/1)

Strong in terms of numbers but less so in terms of likely winners. A drop back in trip (and grade) could see Smugglers Creek go close for Carrutherstown handler Iain Jardine and any signs of sustained market support would be interesting in relation to the returning and lowly-weighted Soldier Blue. However, the C&D Class 5 form line from January 12th featuring DUKE COSIMO (second), Avenue Of Stars (third), Kentuckyconnection (fourth) and Johnny Cavagin (fifth) is as good a guide as any. Despite climbing a further 3lb in the weights, if delivered late by Phil Dennis, the Duke can win again and move up and beyond Class 6 company.
