Forecasts

Zoulu Warrior (7/2), Angel Of England (9/2), Minnesota Lad (5/1), Showtime Mahomes (13/2), Up The Monk (7/1), Fort Augustus (8/1), No Knee Never (10/1), Ishe Worth Agamble (10/1), Asian Journey (10/1), Rambuso Creek (14/1), Thanks Dad (14/1), Dark Dreamer (50/1), Walking On Clouds (50/1)

Verdict

James Owen's new recruit NO KNEE NEVER took a big step forward when going in at Wolverhampton recently and can make light of a 5 lb penalty to thwart Fort Augustus who is fancied to build on his debut ninth for Charlie Wallis here. Both Zoulu Warrior and Asian Journey can have a say too in this open-looking handicap.

  1. NO KNEE NEVER (IRE)
  2. FORT AUGUSTUS
  3. ZOULU WARRIOR (IRE)
