Forecasts

Light Of Air (11/4), Cricklewood Green (4/1), Let Me In (5/1), Top Beak (6/1), Gracie Stansfield (15/2), Contingency Fee (17/2), Star Of Assisi (12/1), Iconic Boy (25/1), Greeneyedafghan (40/1)

LET ME IN ran well off this mark last time out and he can record a victory in the opening race in the card. The trip and forecast going should suit the selection and he can see off top weight Light of Air who ran well in an amateur riders contest here last time. Third place can go the way of Cricklewood Green who is stepping up in trip.
