Forecasts

Diol Ker (5/4), Speak Easy (3/1), Pencilfulloflead (5/1), Forza Milan (5/1), Coko Beach (10/1), Braeside (33/1), Dromore Lad (50/1), Alpine Cobra (50/1)

Verdict

SPEAK EASY has been let down by his jumping in Graded events on his last 2 starts but this drop in class gives him a big chance after 8 months off. Diol Ker and Coko Beach were both useful over hurdles so are likely players starting out in this sphere.

  1. SPEAK EASY
  2. DIOL KER (FR)
  3. COKO BEACH (FR)
