Forecasts

Courtside (5/4), Nicklaus (9/2), Chai Chai (5/1), Deadly Accurate (8/1), Ragstone View (12/1), Letsbe Avenue (16/1), Autumn Leaves (16/1), Dance Me (16/1), Blanchefleur (28/1)

Competitive enough for the grade and race that may well produce a couple who are better than this grade in the future. Courtside is an obvious contender here after his win with a fair bit to spare at Chelmsford last time but he has to prove himself back on turf and NICKLAUS looks a interesting alternative. His two runs this year have shown that he could be ahead of his mark here and he’s in very good hands. Both Deadly Accurate and Letsbe Avenue have races in them off their current marks while Ragstone View will appreciate this trip and a return to his own age group.
