Forecasts

Old Harry Rocks (2/1), Silver Nickel (9/4), Sunny Express (11/4), Churchtown Glen (4/1), Black Centaur (7/1), Big 'n Better (11/1), Arc Of Bubbles (12/1), Midnight Trouble (33/1), Deewhy (50/1)

Verdict

OLD HARRY ROCKS has proved unreliable in the past but is in a rich vein of form at present and fancied to add to his Newton Abbot success after posting an excellent second at Southwell earlier in the month. Sunny Express has yet to score but is in good nick and seems sure to have a say. Churchtown Glen is a long time without a win but appeals as the pick of the remainder.

  1. OLD HARRY ROCKS (IRE)
  2. SUNNY EXPRESS (IRE)
  3. CHURCHTOWN GLEN (IRE)
