Verdict
Casimir Du Clos is only a pound higher than when scrambling home over track and trip last month so has every chance of a quick double. Jokers And Rogues likes it here and Two Hoots has also won at the track and arrives in decent form but Tetraites Style weakened quickly here last time. ROSSMORE’S PRIDE has only half-a-length to find with Casimir Du Clos and is a pound better off so is fancied to take his revenge today.
