Forecasts

Imada (9/4), Flowery (10/3), Black Art (10/3), Quest For Life (6/1), Reverant Cust (8/1), Extra Bald (11/1)

An interesting contest which won't necessarily go the way that the market might anticipate, with the very risky Flowery overlooked on his chasing debut and the Nicky Richards-trained Imada far from flawless at Ayr. Quest For Life has a chasing background (dam was a PTP winner) so should be monitored in the betting exchanges, whilst there's surely better to come over fences from the Sedgefield specialist Black Art. However, we'll take a punt on the Richard Hobson-trained EXTRA BALD. It's perfectly feasible that this chasing newcomer (dam was an unraced sister to a couple of French chasers) will jump off in front and seek to make all.
