Forecasts

Red Bond (2/1), Reset Button (3/1), Hooves Like Jagger (9/2), Floating Rock (7/1), Dandy Maestro (10/1), Tommy R (16/1), Clifftop Heaven (16/1), Bayston Hill (18/1), Ivahunch (33/1)

HOOVES LIKE JAGGER won over C&D last month and he looks the one to beat again this evening. Raised only 3 lb, he has a reasonable strike rate for this level and should go close. Reset Button has also been raised 3 lb for a win over this trip at Kempton last month and he shouldn't be far away. Floating Rock has to be considered too.
