Forecasts

Pockley (15/8), Ballyare (6/1), Lezardrieux (7/1), Stallone (7/1), Glory Call (8/1), Henery Hawk (8/1), Willow Baby (10/1), Rockley Point (16/1), John Kirkup (28/1), Kipp Kelly (33/1), Birdie Bowers (40/1), Angel Of Mather's (125/1)

POCKLEY will need a good pace to aim at back over 5f but he's fit and in form, which will count for plenty at this level. Lezardrieux is back over a more suitable trip so he commands respect, along with Glory Call.
