Forecasts

Ikarak (5/4), Planet Legend (6/1), Drop Flight (13/2), Chris Cool (7/1), Butler's Brief (7/1), Ernest Gray (8/1), Sporty Jim (9/1), Tigerbythetail (11/1), Gold Clermont (18/1)

It's taken Dan Skelton a little time to find the key to DROP FLIGHT but his Carlisle effort at the start of the month was a lot more like it and back up in trip, he now looks ready to cash in on a good mark. Chris Cool has his jumping issues but is very dangerous if keeping the mistakes down, with Butler's Brief likely to be on the premises, too.
