What A Party¹⁰

Weight: 9-4| Age: 6

T: Miss Gay Kelleway J: Aaron Jones

Forecasts

Roser Moter (11/4), Bertie Moon (4/1), Art Of Swing (5/1), Druid's Diamond (6/1), Let's Be Happy (9/1), Saphil (10/1), Iona Island (16/1), What A Party (20/1), Karakoram (25/1), Tilly Devine (25/1), Moojaned (40/1), Fille The Force (100/1)

KARAKORAM ran well in a claiming contest last time and with the blinkers worn that day retained he can register a first handicap victory at the second time of asking in this competitive affair. Maiden Druid's Diamond placed on his most recent outing on the Flat and he can finish runner-up ahead of Roser Moter who can put a couple of disappointing efforts behind her to claim third.
