Forecasts

Blyton Lass (9/2), Theydon Spirit (9/2), Foxrush Take Time (9/2), Muraaqeb (6/1), Foxy's Spirit (8/1), Outlaw Torn (10/1), Merdon Castle (12/1), Ronni Layne (20/1), Hidden Stash (20/1), Herringswell (20/1), Sea Tea Dea (20/1), Turnbury (33/1), Happy Ending (33/1), Pollyissimo (33/1), Outrath (50/1)

THEYDON SPIRIT ran well in a race over shorter here last time out and with improvement possible he is taken to register a first career success on his first attempt at this distance. The selection is taken to get the better of his rivals here with Blyton Lass, fifth over C&D last time out capable of claiming second spot ahead of Foxrush Take Time who finished a good fourth in a Kempton handicap on his most recent start.
