5/4

3 wins from 5 runs this year. Won 8-runner handicap at Ayr (6f, good, 2/1) 6 days ago. Thriving at present and had something to spare last time, so boasts leading claims.

Forecasts

Catherine Chroi (5/4), Burj Malinka (3/1), Stormy Pearl (7/2), Conquest Of Power (7/2), Ignac Lamar (9/1), Warminster (9/1), Mrs Happy (40/1), Heartlander (80/1)

CATHERINE CHROI is in the form of her life and had something to spare last time, so she's fancied to add to her excellent recent run. Fellow last-time-out winner's Burj Malinka and Conquest of Power are clear dangers in a decent race for the grade.
