Verdict
Eros is due a change of luck but Askinvillar, a winning pointer, ran poorly on his fencing bow at Wincanton. Thais Toir is probably improving but also creeping up the weights. FORGET YOU NOT has been in good form since returning from his winter break and is one of the few in this guaranteed to appreciate the quicker ground with Master Mikey Dee’s victory at Taunton coming on soft going.
