18/1

Latest win at Lingfield in July. 12/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 30 days ago, met some trouble. Unlucky not to finish closer the last twice, so he's one to consider.

Forecasts

Shamshon (3/1), Smokey (10/3), Klopp (7/2), Big Lachie (5/1), Secretfact (11/2), You're Cool (9/1), Show Me The Bubbly (14/1), Bahuta Acha (14/1), Roundabout Magic (18/1), May The Sixth (18/1), Major Valentine (33/1)

SMOKEY has landed three 0-60s to complete a hat-trick and this grade will clearly prove tougher, but she's thriving and should be ideally positioned, so she's taken to complete the four-timer. Secretfact is running consistently well of late and Big Lachie was an eye-catcher from a reduced mark at Newcastle 15 days ago but they're both drawn significantly wider than the selection.
