Forecasts

Rocknrollrambo (13/8), Shuil Teacht Aniar (9/2), The Last Bridge (5/1), Bennys Girl (11/2), Armedandbeautiful (8/1), Triptico (8/1), Try It Sometime (9/1), Uncle Pettit (10/1), Welsh Designe (20/1)

Consistency isn't a virtue associated with most of these and backing the likes of Bennys Girl, Uncle Pettit and Welsh Designe for anything better than a place makes very limited appeal. Even ROCKNROLLRAMBO has flaws in his character and needs to be at his best to follow up last month's victory at Huntingdon on an 8lb higher mark. However, he will rarely be presented with a better opportunity to prove himself as the best horse in the race,, so topweight may not be such a burden in this company. The Last Bridge also won last time out but there has to be a suspicion that he'll revert to type over what may prove to be an inadequate trip.
