Forecasts

Dukeman (8/11), Savrola (13/8), Rogue Rocket (15/2), Night Arc (12/1)

SAVROLA did well under the circumstances when making a winning seasonal/stable debut at Wolverhampton in May, overcoming a pace bias, and he could still have more to offer for James Ferguson. He is taken to see off the challenge of Dukeman, who ran well on his return and is respected making only his second start in a handicap.
