Forecasts

Lake Como (7/4), Victory Ace (9/4), Percy's Lad (4/1), Chapter (6/1), Breakdancer (15/2), Lucky Camino (17/2), Darn Hot Gallop (10/1), Mr Professor (22/1), Night Wolf (50/1), Lili Marleen (250/1)

A few with chances but it could be worth siding with LAKE COMO who is a dual winner on the all-weather and returns after a break (also gelded) on a handy-looking mark. Hat-trick seeking Victory Ace rates a big threat stepping back up to 1m, with Darn Hot Gallop also of interest back on an artificial surface. Recent course scorer Percy's Lad also commands plenty of respect.
