Forecasts

Tathmeen (5/2), Balmy Breese (10/3), Bungle Bay (4/1), Peachey Carnehan (9/2), One Last Hug (11/2), Lil Wade (6/1), Griggy (11/1), Mikka (33/1), Overland (40/1), Mark The Sparks (50/1)

A tightly-knit handicap in which ONE LAST HUG is taken to add to his recent C&D victory raised just 1 lb. Tathmeen is next on the list on the back of his good Newcastle third when last seen. Peachey Carnehan can never be dismissed in these low-grade handicaps here.
