Forecasts

Snapdragon Fire (5/4), Court Royale (11/4), Thounder (6/1), Potters Midnight (6/1), Tim Rocco (7/1), Totterdown (12/1), Militarian (16/1), Peruvien Bleu (28/1)

We should get a soundly run race here and that will enhance the chances of Court Royale who will appreciate this test although his stable remain rather quiet at the moment. Snapdragon Fire for all his winning form looks to have a tough task returning to handicap company and the up in grade but in form Tim Rocco would be preferred. Thounder may well have had his chance in handicaps until the assessor allows him some respite from his consistent efforts and its POTTERS MIDNIGHT who gains a narrow vote in the hope that she jumps the final flights more cleanly than she did at Fakenham last time
