7/4

7/4, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 13 days ago, keeping on well. Will take the beating if able to reproduce form akin to that back on turf.

Forecasts

Eight Of Diamonds (7/4), Mucuna (5/2), Campese (4/1), Via Serica (4/1), Graffiti (16/1), Ellencarne (20/1)

EIGHT OF DIAMONDS displayed a decent turn of foot when opening his account at Lingfield recently and should be capable of coping with this 5 lb higher mark, provided he is able to reproduce that level of form back on turf. Mucuna is the logical option for forecast purposes, but Via Serica may well take a step forward now pitched into a handicap and he could be the one to follow the selection home.
