Race preview
FOREST CHIMES beat Grand Roi by half-a-length when the pair met over 2m5f at Stratford last week, but the former had more up his sleeve than that winning margin suggests. Despite being marginally worse off at these weights, he can confirm his superiority over that rival en route to victory once more. My Reprieve remains open to improvement after just one start under Rules for Tom Ellis, and she warrants respect with that outing under her belt.
