Sin E Shekells^b⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: T Eaves| T: M Dods| OR: 51

Forecasts

Proud Archi (11/4), My Thought (7/2), Nordic Fire (8/1), Key Look (10/1), Klopp of The Kop (11/1), Magical Effect (12/1), Kodiac Brown Bear (12/1), The Big House (14/1), Medicine Jack (16/1), Martineo (16/1), Divine Connection (22/1), Brazen Prince (25/1), Northbound (28/1), Sin E Shekells (50/1), Favourite Niece (50/1), Los Camachos (80/1)

PROUD ARCHI looks firmly on the way back after faring best of those held up when runner-up at Beverley last week, so he's one to be interested in again now. My Thought ran his best race on only his second handicap start at Redcar last time and may improve again now stepping up to 7f, while Key Look lost all chance at the start at Beverley and is worth treating as if still in top form.
