Forecasts

Coach Carter (9/4), Pookie Pekan (9/2), Alnadam (9/2), Fanzio (7/1), Crealion (8/1), Gaelik Coast (9/1), The King Of May (12/1), Cracking Destiny (18/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken on ALNADAM, who has been somewhat frustrating for the Skeltons this season. However, he's not yet fully exposed as a chaser at mid-range trips and is back on his last winning mark. Coach Carter is the obvious danger if taking up this engagement, whilst The King of May should give another good account.

  1. ALNADAM (FR)
  2. COACH CARTER (IRE)
  3. THE KING OF MAY (FR)
