Forecasts

Dr Doro (6/4), Arnold (6/1), Paco Escostar (8/1), Straightothepoint (8/1), Pearl Acclaim (12/1), Penny Dreadful (12/1), Kibaar (14/1), Life For Rent (20/1), Pearl Noir (22/1), Gloriux (28/1), Market Choice (40/1), Jaarih (66/1), Go Bananas (150/1)

DR DORO has been in great form since returning this season and she can defy top weight to record a victory in this sprint handicap. The selection was a winner last time out and can get the better of Kibaar who was an AW winner on his most recent outing. Third place can go to Paco Escostar who has run well here in the past and can claim third on her return to turf.
