Forecasts

Indemnity (11/4), Love De Vega (4/1), Game Set (9/2), Lyndon B (7/1), Good Karma (7/1), War Chant (7/1), Lessay (15/2), Whitcombe Rockstar (10/1), Island Bandit (20/1), Plantadream (28/1)

Verdict

LOVE DE VEGA proved at least as good as ever when making his first start at 1m a winning one at Pontefract last week and, the manner in which he quickened clear suggests a 5 lb penalty may not be enough to prevent another bold showing. War Chant is another in-form sort and is feared, with Indemnity and Whitcombe Rockstar others to consider.

  1. LOVE DE VEGA (IRE)
  2. WAR CHANT (IRE)
  3. INDEMNITY (IRE)
