Forecasts

Rippling Waters (9/4), Normal Norman (7/2), Wishmaker (4/1), Grand Sancy (11/2), Lady Maleficent (8/1), Gamekeeper Bill (16/1), Van Grogan (25/1), Gracie Stansfield (33/1), Sutoor (33/1), Forewarning (50/1), Lahloo (50/1), Pitch Pine (50/1), Lots Ov (100/1), Zilla (100/1)

Verdict

The market is likely to provide the majority of clues with a number of newcomers in the line up, so with an absence of that information present it is difficult to hold any solid views. Normal Norman came out best of the quartet to clash at Huntingdon earlier this month in chasing home Cuckoo's Calling, and whilst experience counts for plenty, it isn't easy to assess the overall worth of that form. Of the newcomers, GRAND SANCY, Van Grogan, Lady Maleficent and Rippling Waters all appear as likely enough types, with the vote going to the first named on trainer reputation alone.
  1. Grand Sancy
  2. Rippling Waters
  3. Van Grogan
