Forecasts

Horsforth (11/4), Compton River (3/1), Bahango (4/1), Ambitious Icarus (9/2), Top of The Bank (11/2), Windforpower (7/1), Entertaining Ben (11/1), Socialites Red (14/1)

Verdict

This should be run at a decent pace, with two or three front runners in attendance, and that may suit BAHANGO who did well on his latest start at Wolverhampton and has plenty in his favour trip and track wise. It's wide open for the places, with the consistent Horsforth , Compton River and Entertaining Ben all making plenty of appeal. Money for the last-named would warrant a second look at him, having shaped well last time out.
