Forecasts

Gevrey (7/2), Now Where Or When (4/1), The Greek (9/2), Alice Avril (9/2), Gladiatorial (11/2), Bythesametoken (10/1), Elegant Lass (12/1), Espion Du Chenet (14/1), Razzle Dazzle Love (14/1), Wingin A Prayer (18/1), Downthecellar (28/1), Hollybank King (50/1)

Verdict

Davy Russell gets a good tune out of GEVREY and Gordon Elliott's charge is taken to follow up having beaten a subsequent winner at Limerick 12 days ago. His stablemate The Greek made the most of a good opportunity at Perth and is next best ahead of Alice Avril and Gladiatorial.

  1. GEVREY (FR)
  2. THE GREEK (IRE)
  3. ALICE AVRIL (FR)
