Forecasts

Instant Replay (4/5), Paddling (3/1), Justforjames (5/1), Heritage Way (8/1)

Despite having rocketed up the handicap, top weight INSTANT REPLAY should be good enough to see of the Micky Hammond-trained pair of Justforjames and Paddling. He has taken really well to chasing and can complete a hattrick before going on to better things. Justforjames may be the one for the forecast as he has fallen to a realistic mark and can see of stable companion Paddling in the race for the minor honour.
