Forecasts

Glistening Nights (8/11), Mon Etoile (13/2), Carping Caitlin (10/1), Mariner (11/1), Love Yours (12/1), Strive (12/1), Jez Bomb (14/1), Likleman (25/1), Angel Of Gold (33/1)

GLISTENING NIGHTS can race off the same mark as when a good recent Pontefract third so looks the way to go in this tight-knit handicap. In-form pair Likleman and Mon Etoile rates the chief dangers to Richard Fahey's 3-y-o and can chase home the selection in that order.
