Forecasts

Gamain (15/8), The Sweeney (9/2), Crucial Role (5/1), Pennywell (6/1), Vinegar Hill (14/1), Jennys Day (16/1), Capote (16/1), Three Star General (16/1), Allbarnone (16/1), Deauville Crystal (20/1), Boxer Beat (100/1)

A tricky race for punters with a few of them switching back from chasing to hurdling and others who have points to prove and the suggestion is to side with PENNYWELL, who backed up her Uttoxeter win with another good effort last time and should remain very competitive. Allbarnone enters calculations with his useful claimer assigned, while handicap debutante The Sweeney should be checked in the market and can go well from this mark. Crucial Role, Vinegar Hill and Deauville Crystal are others with claims.
