Forecasts

Lunar Flow (11/10), Leith Hill Legasi (13/2), Snowball (7/1), Sweettoothtommy (7/1), The Last Bridge (7/1), Storm Alert (14/1), One Day Like This (14/1), Musical Wedge (16/1), Bobonyx (25/1)

Plenty in this with long losing runs to overcome and it presents a good chance for LUNAR FLOW to follow up his Uttoxeter romp at the weekend if the conditions haven’t taken that much out of him. Snowball is attractively weighted on his hurdling form while Sweettoothtommy may do better with the blinkers on for the first time. One Day Like This gets his chance in handicap company for the first time and may well have a chance in a race like this. 1. Lunar Flow 2. Snowball 3. One Day Like This
