Forecasts

Coco Live (5/6), Its All Or Nothing (7/2), Kit Barry (6/1), Summons To Court (12/1), Big Georgie (14/1), Im All Set (16/1), Gunner Road (25/1), King Nidge (33/1)

Verdict

This would appear to be a good chance of COCO LIVE to take another step forward and, having won his last four starts in a bloodless manner, the gelding looks the safest call. Its All Or Nothing was in the process of running well until he took a tumble last time; he can push the selection all the way if he stays on his feet this time around. Big Georgie was a good second on his return to racing last month and has to be feared now his fitness has been topped up, while Im All Set will have conditions to suit if the predicted rain gets into the ground.
