Forecasts
Hyanna (10/3), Austrian School (7/2), Great Shot Sam (7/2), Unwritten (4/1), Sunhill Lad (8/1), The Fiddler (11/1), Sincerely Resdev (33/1), The Knot Is Tied (33/1)
In many ways this race should revolve around the question as to which horse will make the most progress from debut to second start. Great Shot Sam posted a reasonable opening effort, but that was on the Polytrack at Kempton, and that form has yet to be really tested, so more value can be possibly sought elsewhere. The suspicion was that Sunhill Lad didn't achieve too much in finishing third in a moderate Newcastle maiden last week whilst both Hyanna and Unwritten didn't scream certain future winner on either of their respective debuts. Therefore, the penalised Ripon scorer AUSTRIAN SCHOOL gets the nod. He has the most experience, yet still appears very raw, and can be forgiven his 'lesser' Chelmsford effort (raced wide) which came in a race which represents much the best form on offer.
