Forecasts

Dargel (13/8), Sir Victor (11/4), Loose Chippings (7/2), Amor Fati (12/1), Swissal (14/1), Tally's Son (14/1), Bond Angel (16/1), Gabriela Laura (20/1), Masai Spirit (80/1)

Verdict

The first of a few low-grade yet fiendishly difficult handicaps to try and work out. Loose Chippings looks the solid option but there's a few too many second-placings for comfort now, and something may well chin him again. Tally's Son would be a threat on a going day, and Gabriela Laura has a few things going for her as well, but DARGEL should have some improvement left in the locker and in a race like this, that counts for plenty. He's taken to come out on top.
  1. Dargel
  2. Loose Chippings
  3. Tally's Son
