Forecasts

William Butler (9/4), Jazz De Cotte (11/4), Joli Travail (4/1), Mister Frostie (8/1), Stickman (8/1), Ludovico Sforza (10/1), Sporting Glance (10/1), Tippawan Haa (25/1), Iceteem Flechois (25/1), Jetovango (25/1), Bob The Builder (33/1), Barnwick (50/1), Coded Welder (50/1), Tinking Man (66/1), Larkfield Lidaho (66/1), Twelve Tribes (100/1), North (150/1)

Verdict

This trip should very much play to the strengths of JAZZ DE COTTE who can go one better than on his last 2 outings. His stablemate William Butler may provide the main threat unless the betting suggests that Joli Travail is expected to step up a good deal on last month's comeback run at Killarney.
