Forecasts

Equiano Springs (5/4), Van Velde (5/2), Ember's Glow (3/1), Coviglia (7/1), Bleu Et Noir (12/1), Knotty Jack (33/1)

A race that should take little winning although the candidates have another enough issues to make a vote difficult to cast. Van Velde represents a yard that are going well. The fact he was sent off favourite on his debut must mean something, but that was a poor race and his absence since must flag concerns unless there are confident signals from the ring. As a result EQUIANO SPRINGS looks more viable now that he steps up in trip. He has been found lacking pace over shorter but this extra furlong should help him and a BHA rating of 72 sets him apart from his rivals.
