Forecasts

The Russian Doyen (11/4), Oakley (9/2), Dorking Boy (5/1), Leoncavallo (5/1), Master Debonair (8/1), Reserve Tank (8/1), Nordic Combined (16/1), Burrows Edge (25/1), Trans Express (25/1), Getaway Trump (28/1), River Bray (80/1)

Verdict

THE RUSSIAN DOYEN took a big step back in the right direction when runner-up at Newbury last month and is potentially on a good mark if building on that back over hurdles. Oakley made a positive start for this yard when third at Wincanton on return and is entitled to come on for that, so rates the main threat ahead of Leoncavallo, who continues to run well.
