Forecasts

Northern Girl (9/4), Theatre Act (3/1), Hurricane Rita (4/1), Hermanus (9/2), Queen Of The Wind (10/1), Simply Business (14/1), Celestial Chimes (25/1), Malpreedy (33/1)

Verdict

A fairly weak ending to the card and this race really ought to offer NORTHERN GIRL a good chance to atone for her last flight fall last time out having gone strongly throughout the race. Hurricane Rita is a solid if unexciting sort at this level and has good each-way claims while Theatre Act is firmly in the mix if she repeats her Sedgefield second last time out. More is expected from Queen Of The Wind on her handicap debut and Simply Business should be watched in the market there may well be more to her than meets the eye from a yard who do well with this type.
  1. Northern Girl
  2. Hurricane Rita
  3. Simply Business
