Forecasts

Dontminddboys (11/4), Try It Sometime (7/2), Onurbike (5/1), Midnight Mustang (7/1), What Larks (8/1), Big Time Frank (8/1), Magical Man (9/1), Finish The Story (10/1), Over My Head (16/1)

Verdict

Dontminddboys has been holding his form well and usually gives a good account around this demanding circuit. However, he shoulders a big weight for the conditions and has to concede 29lb to TRY IT SOMETIME. The ten-year-old is another who acts well around here and was unfortunate to bump into an in-form rival here last time. Onurbike, What Larks and Big Time Frank all hold chances off their low weights, whilst Finish The Story is hard to fancy on current form but has shown he can bounce back when dropped to this level from this kind of mark.
  1. Try It Sometime
  2. Onurbike
  3. Dontminddboys
