Forecasts

Doctor Dex (9/2), Earlofthecotswolds (5/1), On The Slopes (11/2), Darling Maltaix (7/1), Jammy George (7/1), Diable De Sivola (7/1), Cervaro Mix (7/1), Pingshou (12/1), Neachells Bridge (16/1), Sully D'Oc Aa (25/1)

Verdict

You get the feeling that if Pingshou gets his act together then there ought to be a good handicap or two to be won with him this year, but blunders have held him back to date, and he is risky. Earlofthecotswolds looks the one to beat on form and he should be thereabouts, but at likely bigger prices both ON THE SLOPES and Cervaro Mix make appeal. On The Slopes jumped well in the main on his chasing debut at Uttoxeter until getting tired late on, and he should come on plenty for that. Similarly Cervaro Mix might have needed his Fontwell run to blow a few cobwebs away, and he could easily improve on it.
  1. On The Slopes
  2. Cervaro Mix
  3. Pingshou
