Forecasts
Adrien Du Pont (11/10), Coney Island (11/8), More Of That (6/1)
More Of That appears to have lost his way of late and is hard to recommend as a result. Coney Island carries his owner's main hopes having established himself in Grade One company last term. Eddie Harty's charge has a useful turn of foot which will be handy if this proves as tactical as seems likely. However, he faces a stiff task in conceding 11lb and a fitness advantage to ADRIEN DU PONT. He was rated on a par with Coney Island over hurdles and has clearly benefitted from a wind op during the summer. His third to Willoughby Court and Yanworth last time looks strong enough to earn him the vote on these terms and his trainer knows what it takes to land this.
