Forecasts

Dovils Date (11/4), Rockliffe (10/3), Top Of The Rocks (5/1), Honourmission (6/1), Eddy (8/1), Druid's Folly (12/1), Doctor Jazz (14/1), D'pinesflyer (20/1), Shaji (20/1), This Lovely Lady (25/1), Grand Coureur (33/1)

The fact that a top conditional (Jonjo O’Neill Jnr) is booked for Honourmission suggests that a positive run is expected and if the lid can be kept on his antics at the start his mark is one that should see him competitive. Rockcliffe is capable in this sort of company and this looks an easier test that he’s faced of late with Doctor Jazz one to keep an eye on in the market on his handicap debut up in trip. DOVILS DATE hasn’t been successful in this sphere for a long while but now down to a mark and trip that he should suit on both counts makes him the suggestion.
