North Force²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Shane Gray| T: R A Fahey| OR: 76

Forecasts

Dunkeld Dreamer (3/1), Suddenly I See (10/3), The Resdev Scholar (4/1), Cool Molly (4/1), Night Patrol (7/1), North Force (9/1), Lyrical Song (10/1), Jungle Ruler (10/1), Mandarin Spirit (18/1), Gorey Gold (18/1)

SUDDENLY I SEE was a commanding winner on handicap debut at Musselburgh last time and, with further progress to come, he can go on to land the hat-trick. The main danger could be Lyrical Song as he bids to follow up his reappearance C&D success, ahead of The Resdev Scholar.
