Forecasts

Honkytonktennessee (11/8), Iona Days (13/2), Golanova (13/2), Aces Over Eights (13/2), Smoking Jacket (7/1), Gold Ingot (15/2), Midnight Chorister (8/1), Vexillum (12/1), Zayfire Aramis (20/1), Jewellery (25/1)

Verdict

Quite a competitive handicap in which Honkytonktennessee is of great interest reverted to fences. The drop in trip might play to his strengths and he is feared, along with Midnight Chorister, Vexillum and Golanova, who all have claims. However, ACES OVER EIGHTS only narrowly failed to win off this mark at Ludlow two starts ago and, with the champion back on board, looks sure to make a bold bid.
  1. Aces Over Eights
  2. Honkytonktennessee
  3. Vexillum
