Forecasts

Agostino (10/3), Sir Rodneyredblood (7/2), Kessaar Power (9/2), Harb (11/2), Daytona Lady (17/2), Araifjan (9/1), Mokaatil (10/1), Top Button (16/1), Anificas Beauty (40/1), Colors Of Freedom (100/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for C&D winner KESSAAR POWER who hinted at a revival when third at Southwell last time and can capitalise on a falling mark. Agostino is feared most off a handy-looking weight, with fellow course scorers Harb and Mokaatil also in the mix.
