Forecasts

Spookydooky (4/1), Until Winning (11/2), Whiskey Chaser (13/2), Solid Strike (13/2), Katenko (13/2), Shockingtimes (7/1), Buffalo Ballet (8/1), Swing Hard (17/2), Top Cat Henry (25/1)

Verdict

Solid Strike is an interesting newcomer to handicap chasing after a decent run last time. We don't know a huge amount about him, but if he can repeat that effort then he should be thereabouts. Shockingtimes carries a punters' health warning, but if he goes clear then he too looks well treated, but brace yourself if taking the plunge. Whiskey Chaser looks exposed though can't be ruled out and the same applies to Swing Hard, while Buffalo Ballet would not be winning out of turn but needs the cheek pieces to work. Preference, therefore, is for UNTIL WINNING, who comes into this in decent form, handles conditions and might have a race like this in him.
