Forecasts

So Quiet (2/1), Where's Freddy (10/3), Bajan Bandit (8/1), Benavente (17/2), Straight A (17/2), Powdering (12/1), Abduction (16/1), Enola Grey (16/1), Lessay (20/1), Beattie Is Back (25/1), Swiss Ace (28/1), How Impressive (28/1)

Verdict

WHERE'S FREDDY ran out a ready winner of a Wolverhampton handicap on his most recent outing and is still unexposed on all-weather after just the 3 starts, so he's the percentage call to follow up in a competitive affair. Lessay was caught further back than ideal at Chelmsford last week and isn't one to give up on, with recent C&D scorer Powering another to consider.

  2. Lessay20/1
