Forecasts

Heart Of Soul (4/1), Where's Jeff (5/1), Happy (6/1), Heights Of Abraham (7/1), Magna Moralia (8/1), Life On The Rocks (17/2), Bollin Joan (17/2), Howzer Black (14/1), Alpine Sierra (14/1), Mr Carpenter (14/1), Strawman (14/1), Tilsitt (16/1), Geremia (33/1), Zuraig (33/1), Glasses Up (33/1)

Verdict

LIFE ON THE ROCKS looked a handicapper to keep on the right side of for the bulk of last season and confirmed that promise with a reappearance win at Ayr. With further improvement likely to come, he can follow up in this competitive event. The similarly unexposed Happy looks a threat, whilst the likes of Strawman and Tilsitt can fight it out for minor honours.
