Forecasts

Lord Wishes (13/8), Only Orsenfoolsies (7/4), Cairnshill (2/1), Altruism (4/1), Black Key (5/1), Lomachenko (7/1)

A difficult Class 3 handicap hurdle, although the recent Cartmel winner Lord Wishes will undoubtedly be all the rage reverting to hurdles from a 1lb lower mark (now rated 10lb higher over fences). However, there are also other in-form horses to be considered with the improving Cairnshill now 2 from 3 since joining the Newcastle handler Kenny Johnson, and the top-weight Altruism far from punitively handicapped either, but for small stakes we'll chance the mud-lark ONLY ORSENFOOLSIES. Micky Hammond's 10yo bounced right back to form on the Flat at Carlisle (2m1f) recently turning over his well handicapped stablemate Cornerstone Lad.
