Forecasts

Roman Art (5/2), Smokey Malone (4/1), Lawmans Blis (9/2), Shalfa (9/2), Kentucky Kingdom (5/1), Third Batch (17/2), Timewave (11/1), No Diggity (11/1), The Guvnor (28/1), Roman Tempest (40/1)

Verdict

THIRD BATCH didn't enjoy the rub of the green when seventh on the AW here last time and can capitalise on a 2 lb drop in the weights and gain a deserved breakthrough success now. Smokey Malone also wasn't seen to best effect when sixth at Nottingham so this C&D winner can have a say along with Shalfa who has made a positive start to life with Lydia Richards.
