Forecasts

Netywell (8/11), Cornerstone Lad (9/2), Duo D'Enfer (5/1), Mr Grey Sky (6/1)

Verdict

NETYWELL and Duo d'Enfer both arrive here in rude health and marginal preference is for the former, who did the job well at Ayr last time and he clearly relishes testing conditions. Mr Grey Sky is taken to edge out Cornerstone Lad in the battle for minor honours.

  1. NETYWELL (FR)
  2. DUO D'ENFER (FR)
  3. MR GREY SKY (IRE)
