Forecasts

Looking Well (5/2), Bally Longford (11/4), Rocklander (9/2), Sir Mangan (5/1), Junction Fourteen (7/1), Enjoy Responsibly (10/1)

Verdict

Looking Well was going nicely when coming to grief in first-time cheekpieces at Kelso and could be a big threat if the headgear has a similar effect. He may find this trip on the short side, though, so preference is for top-weight ROCKLANDER, who has a touch of class and is capable of winning this if his sometimes suspect jumping holds up. Bally Longford, Sir Mangan and Enjoy Responsibly are respected, but Junction Fourteen does not look the force of old.
