Forecasts

Morlaix (11/8), Dr Jekyll (10/3), All Of The Lights (9/2), Black Box (6/1), Calculus (7/1)

MORLAIX disappointed last time at Kempton but he was a little keen that day and had run well previously at Chelmsford. Given his sire's excellent record on this surface, he's taken to make a winning fibresand debut. All of The Lights possibly didn't stay at Lingfield last time and the drop back to a mile may help. Dr Jekyll has a long absence to overcome but has to be considered.
