First run since leaving James Given when 9/4 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago. Very difficult to oppose under a penalty.

Forecasts

Stone Soldier (8/11), Jump The Gun (9/2), Shining Aitch (8/1), Star Of St James (10/1), Xcelente (11/1), Samphire Coast (14/1), Love Destiny (40/1), Love Your Work (66/1)

Verdict

It would be very brave to oppose STONE SOLDIER who won on his stable debut for Archie Watson in very convincing style here last week. A 6 lb penalty is of no concern and he should go in again. Star of St James goes well on this surface and he should be the biggest threat. Samphire Coast is coming to the boil again and has a decent each-way chance.

  1. STONE SOLDIER
  2. STAR OF ST JAMES (GER)
  3. SAMPHIRE COAST
