Forecasts

Elf De Re (4/9), Le Cheval Noir (4/1), Do Your Job (7/1), Devour (16/1), Marvellous Joe (33/1)

Verdict

Both Do Your Job (debut for Michael Scudamore) and Le Cheval Noir (Rose Dobbin) cost plenty from the Irish point-to-point scene and should prove capable of winning more races for their current connections. However, the Kelso regular ELF DE RE created a strong positive impression when going down all guns blazing to the progressive 133-rated Kiltealy Briggs (pair well clear) at Kelso last month, and can complete what promises to be a stellar afternoon for Sandy Thomson and Ryan Mania.
  1. Elf De Re
