Forecasts

Trafalgar Rock (6/4), No Such Number (5/2), Lettheriverrundry (9/2), Perseid (5/1), Walkami (10/1), Ethelwyn (14/1)

In a tricky little contest, a chance is taken on PERSEID, who made mistakes early on his chasing debut at Kelso but was getting the hang of things late on, and can do better over a longer trip here. He gets a useful chunk of weight from Trafalgar Rock , who is the type to make a decent chaser, and Lettheriverrundry, who put in a solid effort at Worcester (not unbacked at big prices) and a reproduction of that takes him close. No Such Number has been mopping up some Northern chases but will find this harder.
