13/8
7/2, much improved after 15 months off when winning 7-runner minor event at this C&D 68 days ago, soon clear. Long odds-on second from the Karl Burke yard is another promising sort, who won well next time, and she can go on progressing.

Forecasts

Gemstar (1/1), Hopeful (13/8), Lakota Brave (15/2), Gunlock (18/1), Achernar (20/1), Lesrico (150/1)

Verdict

HOPEFUL saw off a promising subsequent winner when opening her account back from a long absence here 10 weeks ago and she's taken to follow up with the prospect of more improvement to come. Gemstar made a very encouraging start here recently and is a big threat. Achernar and Gunlock are newcomers to note making belated debuts.
