Forecasts

Boruma (13/8), Idder (7/2), Overtheedge (9/2), Grand Enterprise (5/1), Bourne (7/1), Smart Ruler (17/2), Mondlicht (10/1), Silver Shuffle (16/1), Pistol (25/1)

Local trainer James Moffatt saddles a four strong party with Idder, Mondlicht, Smart Ruler and Boruma set to take part in a nine strong field. Jockey bookings would indicate that Idder, and perhaps Smart Ruler are the leading contenders from that quartet. However, in a tricky to solve contest, a chance is taken that GRAND ENTERPRISE can provide the in-form Henry Hoggarth with another winner. His handicap mark is probably high enough, but he's a consistent enough sort who ran well at Hexham earlier in the month, and will be untroubled by both trip and forecast ground.
