Forecasts

A Definite Getaway (5/2), Camino Rocio (5/2), Face d'Music (4/1), Atlanta Brave (4/1), Climbing (8/1), Karuma Grey (25/1)

CAMINO ROCIO found the race falling apart around him as he added another success to his tally at Huntingdon 5 weeks ago. Yet that shouldn't detract from what has been a fine start for this yard (successful on 5 of his 6 starts) and, with his jumping a definite asset, he's selected to defy the handicapper again. Fellow last-time-out scorer A Definite Getaway may emerge next best, ahead of the returning Face d'Music.
