Forecasts

Varzi (4/5), Magic Harry (3/1), Princeland (4/1), Diamondsforyou (12/1), North Coates (80/1)

Verdict

VARZI is also declared to run at Thirsk on Friday evening but will set a good standard based on his York second if taking up this engagement. Princeland would make most appeal in his absence given the Crisfords' fine record with juveniles this year.

  1. Varzi4/5
  2. Princeland4/1
  3. Magic Harry3/1
