Forecasts

Ratify (3/1), Ckalco Des Loges (4/1), Born To Size (6/1), Looks Like Power (15/2), Yorgonnahearmeroar (8/1), Gores Island (12/1), Follow The Swallow (12/1), Everyday Everyhour (12/1), Pembroke House (16/1), Jayo Time (16/1), Truckers Highway (16/1), Key To The West (25/1), Spock (28/1), Modeligo (50/1)

Verdict

A burn up could be on the cards with a number of the field at their best when allowed to race prominently. Both Truckers Highway and Key To The West could potentially take on the old-stager Ratify up front, and that might be just enough to prove detrimental to the chance of the Fergal O'Brien trained horse. The likes of Ckalco Des Loges and Everyday Everyhour offer a youthful element in a race where a couple of veterans lurk, but it could be a similar sort in the shape of the Richard Woollacott trained BORN TO SIZE who could prove best handicapped of the lesser exposed horses. Of the remainder Jayo Time is undeniably thrown in off his current mark if able to rediscover his best form, but that has been firmly lingering in the long grass for quite some considerable time now, and the percentage call is too oppose.
