Forecasts

Eric The Third (7/4), Motion To Strike (4/1), Jackthejourneyman (5/1), Alys Rock (11/2), Falcos (9/1), My Renaissance (14/1), Reverse The Charge (14/1), New Kid In Town (20/1)

Verdict

There could well be plenty of pace on here with several of these likely to go forward and it was that same scenario that scuppered the chances of Reverse The Charge last time. Eric The Third is another one that has gone forward in the past and although he’s in good form he does have to prove that he can cope with this inflated mark. Motion To Strike really ought to be winning races like this and it won’t be a surprise to see him travel well with Brian Hughes back on board but he will need to find something on the long run-in. The Laura Morgan yard are quietly becoming a yard to note and they have done a good job already with ALYS ROCK and she’s taken to follow-up her Worcester win.
  1. Alys Rock
  2. Motion To Strike
  3. Eric The Third
