Forecasts

Speech Room (4/1), By Jove (5/1), Life Matters (6/1), Walk It Talk It (6/1), Selsey Sizzler (7/1), Evaporust (8/1), Wand (10/1), Cousin Rosaura (14/1), Bird For Life (16/1), Bailarico (28/1), Gavlar (33/1), Percy's Prince (33/1), Forge Valley Lad (33/1)

Verdict

BY JOVE was well on the up before an excusable effort at Salisbury 18 days ago, so he's well worth a chance to get back on the up and resume winning ways. Walk It Talk It is a definite threat if she can get back to the form she showed when runner-up over C&D in July and Speech Room can't be discounted.
