Forecasts

Camouflaged (11/4), Richard R H B (16/5), Caribeno (11/2), Russian Rumour (6/1), Kings Creek (9/1), Party Potential (14/1), Evaporust (16/1), Bruisa (16/1), Alenh (16/1)

Trainer Sir Mark Prescott can boast a near 28% strike-rate (5/18) with his handicap runners at this venue in recent years and his representative here CARIBENO can make a winning handicap debut by taking the concluding race on the card. The selection is bred to appreciate this step up in distance and he can get the better of his rivals with Camouflaged, a winner on the AW at Kempton already this year capable of claiming second place ahead of Russian Rumour who finished a promising fifth on handicap debut last time.
