Lunar Deity (3/1), Light Of Air (5/1), Duke Of North (5/1), Roy Rocket (6/1), Rubensian (7/1), Seaborn (9/1), War Of Succession (9/1), Castle Talbot (10/1), Attain (22/1)

Verdict

Quite a few of these are bidding to break long losing runs with LIGHT OF AIR the one with the best chance of doing so having bounced back to form last time and it wouldn’t take a great deal of improvement for him to go one better than his run at Lingfield last time. Rubensian is another who is trying to get back to winning ways but often flatters only to deceive. Duke Of North could do with some more assistance from the saddle but looks dangerous off this mark around a track he acts on if he gets a decent gallop to aim at. There would be no more popular winner than course specialist Roy Rocket but he’s yet to show he can win as a veteran with Lunar Deity another to consider.
  1. Light Of Air
  2. Duke Of North
  3. Lunar Deity
