Forecast Prices: So You Know 5/1, Paso Doble 13/2, Donnie Azoff 9/4, The Bellhop 14/1, Motazzen 5/2, Lynx De Thaix 10/1, Hes A Latchico 12/1, Fire Flyer 20/1
Fontwell specialist Motazzen always warrants respect at this venue and a sixth course victory would come as no surprise. However, the eight-year-old's last two defeats at this venue suggest that he may need a little extra, so it could be worth chancing PASO DOBLE to make a winning return. Paul Nicholls' charge made a triumphant seasonal debut at this track last October and lightning may strike once more. Donnie Azoff can also give another good account of himself.
Prediction: 1st Paso Doble, 2nd Motazzen, 3rd Donnie Azoff
