Forecasts

Flamboyant Joyaux (5/2), Going Mobile (4/1), Light Flicker (9/2), Eagle De Guye (8/1), Real Armani (17/2), Road Warrior (11/1), Vintage Glen (12/1), Silk Or Scarlet (14/1), Yesandno (16/1), Duncomplaining (33/1), Kiteinahurricane (40/1), Triangle Rock (50/1), Connerys Hill (100/1)

Verdict

A fair winning hurdler, FLAMBOYANT JOYAUX shaped well when third on his first crack at chasing at Sedgefield last month, his jumping looking an asset but his early exuberance arguably costing him late on. He gets the nod to build on that effort now, with Real Armani and Light Flicker next best. Triangle Rock and Yesandno require a market check on their respective chase debuts.

  1. FLAMBOYANT JOYAUX (FR)
  2. REAL ARMANI
  3. LIGHT FLICKER (IRE)
