Forecasts

John Williams (7/4), Henry's Joy (3/1), Civil Unrest (3/1), Present Flight (5/1), Cool Valley (15/2), Ulis De Vassy (17/2)

Verdict

None of these have cast-iron profiles although a couple have decent form around here in Civil Unrest and John Williams although they may contest the pace and that will be to the disadvantage of both while the ground may be a little too soft for the former. HENRY’S JOY would have shown better form than most of these over hurdles and despite a below-par chasing debut he does have more potential than all of these. Cool Valley will be more at home over this 2m4f and he deserves to pick up a race although it may take a couple of these to underperform.
  1. Henry's Joy
  2. John Williams
