Forecasts

Broadway Belle (6/4), Spoils Of War (5/1), Classical Sound (5/1), Spring Over (8/1), Christmas Twenty (8/1), Birch Bank (9/1), Silver Dragon (14/1), Ollisu Lad (14/1), Millrose Bell (16/1)

This could prove to be a real test in the conditions at the end of the card but that shouldn’t worry BROADWAY BELLE who despite the savage display by the handicapper will cope with conditions and should prove hard to stop from following up her C&D romp. Birch Bank from a yard that does well here is expected to show more on his handicap debut but he does have to prove he can cope with this marathon trip. Christmas Twenty flattered only to deceive again last time while Classical Sound is another who showed promise but can’t be trusted to repeat. Perhaps the most interesting contender is Ollisu Lad who if none the worse for his tumble last time has shown potential on his last two outings.
