Forecasts

Koybig (9/10), Complicit (11/4), Peace Mission (7/1), Desert Dancer (8/1), Wild Shot (8/1), Hes Our Music (16/1), Quiet Company (16/1), Lady Rosebud (16/1), Bubbly Bellini (20/1), Full Shilling (20/1), Newlands Voice (20/1), One Cool Girl (20/1), Bert Leaf (25/1), Surewhynot (33/1), Forevertwentyone (40/1), Hard Times (50/1), Sally Gap (50/1)

Verdict

KOYBIG is effectively 1lb well in given he is due to go up 7lb for his latest success and carries just the 6lb penalty today and while his draw could have been kinder he is in the form of his life at present and can complete a hat-trick in the first division of the 1m handicap. Runner-up to the selection last time out Complicit can claim third in first time cheekpieces while Full Shilling is well handicapped on her best form and can finish third today.
  1. Koybig

  3. Full Shilling
