Forecasts

Mystic Theatre (1/2), One First Cut (5/1), Heritage Quay (7/1), Wings Like Arion (10/1), Marta Mes (10/1), Bluegrass Princess (20/1), Dubai My Way (33/1), Tay Lane (33/1), Meadow Blaze (50/1)

Verdict

MYSTIC THEATRE has already won three races (two point-to-points and a bumper) in her career so far and can add a fourth one for her leading trainer her. The selection was an easy winner last time out and can get the better of the unraced Heritage Quay who receives a sizeable weight allowance here with previous bumper winner One First Cut the selection to finish third with the hood fitted for the first time here.
  1. Mystic Theatre
  2. Heritage Quay
  3. One First Cut
