Forecasts

Jonny Garlic (11/10), Backer Bilk (16/5), Manton Road (4/1), Ballarat Bertie (9/1), The Kamikaze King (14/1), Galette (28/1), Magna (33/1), Spinning Dancer (66/1), Leading Star Girl (66/1)

Verdict

Though MANTON ROAD doesn't appear to be entirely straightforward, there's clealry an engine there and he should benefit from this step back up in trip after opening his account off a 2 lb lower mark over 7f here recently. Jonny Garlic found just one too good on his handicap/stable debut at Lingfield and he is the clear main danger. Ballarat Bertie could be in line for minor place money.

  1. Manton Road4/1
  2. Jonny Garlic11/10
  3. Ballarat Bertie9/1
