Forecasts

Quarenta (5/2), Toviere (11/4), Be My Sea (11/2), Schnabel (6/1), Magic Bullet (6/1), I'm Still Waiting (8/1), Mab Dab (10/1)

Quite an interesting little handicap with Toviere making his handicap debut off top weight but he does face few that could trouble him with his stable being a little quiet at the moment. Quarenta certainly travelled well last time out (questionable finishing effort) and Magic Bullet is expected to improve going into handicaps while Mab Dab might be capable of better. SCHNABEL is perhaps though the one who holds most interest having caught the eye in a couple of previous starts and on his second handicap start he looks a little bit of value here.
