Forecasts

Mercian King (5/2), Brave Dancing (9/2), I'dliketheoption (5/1), Peppay Le Pugh (11/2), Truckers Highway (11/2), Get Rhythm (7/1), Modeligo (16/1)

Verdict

Brave Dancing is an interesting recruit from France whose chance is not obvious but he is in good hands and any market confidence would be intriguing. Truckers Highway probably has as much to do as when winning this last year, but Get Rhythm lost his way over fences when last seen and it remains to be seen if a break has restored his confidence. I'dliketheoption faces an easier task than last time although he shoulders a big burden for a relatively small horse. Pepay Le Pugh makes no appeal and Modeligo looks fully weighted. MERCIAN KING clearly improved for his wind op last time and would have won more cosily but for a mistake at the last when in command.
  1. Mercian King
  2. Get Rhythm
  3. Truckers Highway
