6/4
11/2, won 7-runner handicap at Chelmsford (1m) 8 days ago. Did well to get up having still had plenty to do 2f out so a 3 lb rise may not stop him.

Course winner but has a whopping 1302 day absence to overcome. Best watched unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.

Forecasts

Lough Leane (6/4), Calcutta Dream (7/2), Star Of St Louis (13/2), Havana Goldrush (9/1), Hazel Bear (10/1), Kemerton (11/1), Van Zant (12/1), Beau Geste (16/1), Descendant (100/1)

Verdict

David Simcock looks to hold a strong hand in the second division of this handicap too, with LOUGH LEANE selected to make light of a 3lb rise for last week's Chelmsford success. Calcutta Dream didn't enjoy the rub of the green here last time and is second choice ahead of Kemerton.
