Forecasts

Jatiluwih (5/2), Storm Arising (5/2), Tedham (7/2), Duc De Beauchene (9/2), Third Wind (11/2), Myplaceatmidnight (8/1), Demon Fou (12/1), Collooney (18/1), Final Choice (40/1)

Verdict

A fine race in prospect with a number of upwardly mobile contenders. Narrow preference is for DUC DE BEAUCHENE who is taken to foil the admirable Jatiluwih's bid for six in a row. The selection really mpressed when winning at Cheltenham last time and could still be a step ahead of the handicapper. Jatiluwih will almost certainly prove a tough nut to crack and won't go down without a proper fight. Tedham is another with serious claims following his third in a Grade 3 last time, and Myplaceatmidnight also shaped well when second here last time out. Storm Arising and Third Wind are others who could quite easily have a say in the argument.
  1. Duc De Beauchene
  2. Jatiluwih
  3. Tedham
