Forecasts

Cafe Au Lait (7/2), Hollywood All Star (7/2), Akula (7/2), Miracle Cure (4/1), Champion Chase (8/1), Act Four (9/1), Actiondancer (10/1), Monte Wildhorn (22/1), Lickpenny Larry (25/1), Serveontime (50/1)

Verdict

Akula has proved a revelation of late and will have his supporters as he bids to complete a hat-trick but his victories came in selling company and he has to be considered vulnerable to an improver, with CHAMPION CHASE fitting the bill. Kim Bailey's charge showed clear signs of improvement in testing conditions at Lingfield last time and looks to be well-treated for his handicap bow. The same could also apply to Lickpenny Larry if the introduction of a tingue-strap has the desired effect whilst Cafe Au Lait is better than he showed under an amateur pilot at Catterick last time and is also respected.
  1. Champion Chase
  2. Cafe Au Lait
