Forecasts

Forest Des Aigles (9/4), Nomoreblackjack (9/4), Ash Park (5/1), Avidity (15/2), Cooper's Friend (8/1), Chitu (16/1), Fair Loch (16/1)

Nomoreblackjack is in good form and if Danny Cook produces his usual positive ride then he should be be in the mix once again, while Forest Des Aigles also looks a leading player. The suggestion, however, is COOPER'S FRIEND, who returns to more suitable ground and the booking of Richard Johnson looks very positive.
