Forecasts

Devizes (11/8), Vocal Duke (3/1), Donya (11/2), Gold Standard (8/1), Pledge Of Peace (11/1), Trusty Scout (18/1), Mindspin (20/1), Blue Beret (50/1), Restricted Area (200/1)

DEVIZES confirmed the promise of his previous run to record a fourth success over C&D last week, and the way he quickly sealed matters makes him of interest again up 3 lb. Vocal Duke has done well over hurdles for this yard and is potentially on a good mark back on the Flat, so is feared most ahead of Gold Standard.
