Forecasts

Castle Rushen (8/13), Democratic Oath (11/4), Midnight Legacy (10/1), Max Appeal (12/1), Roussimoff (18/1)

Verdict

Newcomers Max Appeal and Midnight Legacy make some appeal on paper and the latter receives a stone from CASTLE RUSHEN but it remains likely that Nicky Richards' C&D winner can defy his penalty. Democratic Oath was one of two Gordon Elliott inmates that chased him home that day and, despite the weight differential, he can help would-be champion jockey Brian Hughes end the afternoon on a high note by accounting for the mount of title rival Richard Johnson, amongst others.
  1. Castle Rushen
  2. Midnight Legacy
  3. Democratic Oath
