Forecasts

Verdict

NO KNEE NEVER showed the benefit of cheekpieces when readily getting back to winning ways at Lingfield just three days ago and can make light of a 5 lb penalty with the headgear retained. Drumcondra resumed with an encouraging Southwell fourth and is next on the list in his attempt to get off the mark. Maple and Tees George also need factoring in.

  1. NO KNEE NEVER (IRE)

  3. MAPLE
