Forecasts

Seasearch (2/1), Tynecastle Park (7/2), Contingency Fee (7/2), Geordielad (9/2), Isharah (15/2), Incredible Dream (11/1), Schindlers Ark (12/1), Ruler Of The Nile (20/1), Marshall Aid (25/1), Esme Kate (33/1), Fields Of Fire (40/1), Rock N'stones (50/1), Unonothinjonsnow (80/1), Boru's Brook (150/1)

SEASEARCH has shown a liking for this venue in the past and can follow-up his recent placed effort here by recording a second course victory in this competitive staying handicap. The selection looks capable of getting the better of Geordielad who is making his first start here but was a winner last time out while third place can go the way of Tynecastle Park who ran well over further on his most recent appearance.
