12/1

C&D winner last summer who after 10 months off, clearly wasn't 100% when last of 8 in handicap at Chester (5.1f, soft, 7/1) 9 days ago, reported to have lost her action. Best watched after that.

Forecasts

Clarendon House (10/11), A Sure Welcome (11/4), Charlie Fellowes (3/1), Thegreatestshowman (13/2), Rayong (17/2), Second Collection (10/1), Caroline Dale (12/1)

CLARENDON HOUSE took his record to 2-2 when making all in a very weak contest at Bath last month. This is his toughest assignment yet, but he's taken to complete a quick-fire hat-trick with the promise of better to come heading into handicaps. A Sure Welcome is yet to run a bad race this year so rates as the main threat, ahead of the progressive Charlie Fellowes.
