Forecasts

Mountain Leopard (15/8), Onchan (10/3), Roman Rock (10/3), Theme Tune (13/2), Prime Pretender (7/1), Maitree Express (8/1), Barely Famous (12/1), Seven No Trumps (16/1), Arcadian Pearl (25/1), Yes Governor (33/1), Gumbo Flyer (50/1), Intheboriscamp (50/1), Grooveur (80/1), Tom O'Roughley (100/1), Jakamani (100/1), Graceful Abbie (100/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken on ROMAN ROCK, who matched his previous form after 3 months off when third at Haydock on yard debut last month and can gain a first win with the usual headgear quickly reapplied. Onchan is well worth another chance to show what he's capable of after his Hereford flop (treated for post-race ataxia), with newcomers Barely Famous and Seven No Trumps certainly not dismissed either.

  1. ROMAN ROCK (IRE)
  2. ONCHAN (IRE)
  3. BARELY FAMOUS (IRE)
