11/4

No easy ride, though looked more straightforward when opening his account on second outing for this yard in 15-runner handicap at Chepstow (6.1f) last week. Good claims if reproducing that.

Forecasts

Thaki (13/8), Manumission (11/4), Miracle Garden (13/2), Hot Hot Hot (9/1), Shesaheart (10/1), Anonymous John (16/1), Bay Beret (20/1), Miss Prancealot (20/1), Mansfield (22/1), His Pride (80/1), Little Miss Lilly (80/1)

MANUMISSION isn't one for maximum faith, but he won readily on just his second outing for his new yard at Chepstow last week, and a repeat of that form would make him hard to beat. Thaki has been shaping up well on his last few starts so is considered the main threat ahead of Anonymous John.
