Forecasts

Chantry House (8/11), Fusil Raffles (16/5), Quel Destin (9/2), Lieutenant Rocco (16/1)

Verdict

CHANTRY HOUSE wasn't foot-perfect when making a successful start over fences at Ascot on his return 3 weeks ago but is a very exciting chasing prospect and it will be disappointing if he doesn't follow up over this longer trip. Lieutenant Rocco shaped well for his new yard at Chepstow and could offer some value for the forecast over Quel Destin and Fusil Raffles.

  1. CHANTRY HOUSE (IRE)
  2. LIEUTENANT ROCCO (IRE)
  3. QUEL DESTIN (FR)
