Forecasts

Duc De Beauchene (10/3), The Kings Writ (7/2), Flying Verse (7/2), Hotel Du Nord (5/1), Smuggler's Blues (9/1), Pemberley (9/1), Bermeo (14/1), Ballinslea Bridge (28/1), West Approach (33/1)

Verdict

FLYING VERSE has hardly proved reliable this season but Ned Fox got a good tune out of him when scoring at Doncaster and the pair are taken to follow up. The Kings Writ can make his presence felt again, while Duc de Beauchene can be competitive again off his reduced mark.

  1. FLYING VERSE
  2. THE KINGS WRIT (IRE)
  3. DUC DE BEAUCHENE (FR)
