Forecasts

The Lords Walk (7/2), Amaretto (7/2), Ascot Week (4/1), Gainsay (7/1), Lunar Deity (8/1), Gerry The Glover (9/1), Duke Of North (10/1), Narjes (16/1), Settle Petal (25/1)

Verdict

Duke Of North and Gerry The Glover filled the first two places in this contest in 2018 but will be doing very well to repeat that scenario this time around with the pacy Amaretto appearing the most likely of the Jim Boyle representatives. The suggested advice is to follow the form horse and that's clearly the likeable ASCOT WEEK who makes the journey south from John Quinn's Malton base. He carries a 5lb penalty for last week's Ripon win but the vast majority of that is negated by the very capable claimer Cieren Fallon. Placed in suitable races he could be just the type to run up a small sequence of wins.
