Forecasts

Rowdy Romeo (11/8), The Village Way (11/4), Rock Danse (7/2), Boy De La Vis (5/1), Nearly Wed (25/1), Walk My Way (100/1), Samillier (150/1)

Verdict

THE VILLAGE WAY shaped as though in need of the experience when chasing home a race-fit rival at Wetherby on his Rules debut and, with that pipe-opener under his belt and this stiffer test sure to suit, he looks the way to go. Rock Danse gets the nod for forecast purposes ahead of Irish raider Rowdy Romeo and bumper winner Boy de La Vis.

  1. THE VILLAGE WAY
  2. ROCK DANSE (FR)
  3. ROWDY ROMEO (IRE)
