Forecasts

Lime Avenue (13/8), Luttrell Lad (15/8), Call Me Lord (9/2), Copper Coin (15/2), Risk And Roll (10/1)

Verdict

Preference is for LUTTRELL LAD, who did the job well when regaining the winning thread at Cartmel in July and his subsequent fifth in a competitive Haydock handicap was no backward step, particularly given that he would've finished closer but for a mistake at the final flight. Copper Coin is entitled to come on for his reappearance spin at Kempton and is next on the list ahead of Lime Avenue, who remains of interest despite a low-key return at Wincanton.
