Forecasts

Perfect Gentleman (8/11), Krona (7/2), The Pug (11/2), Dovena (13/2), Sexy Rexy (28/1), A Little Respect (33/1), Me And Mrs Jones (100/1)

PERFECT GENTLEMAN took a marked step forward when winning here a fortnight ago and he should stay the longer trip, so he's a confident choice. Fellow last-time-out winner The Pug is a danger and Krona is worthy of a mention on handicap debut.
