Forecasts

Petrucci (7/4), Far Bihoue (3/1), Musical Stardust (7/1), Never A Word (7/1), Glimpse Of Gold (8/1), Raving Bonkers (9/1), Magen's Moon (28/1), Little Folke (28/1), Adrakhan (33/1), Bit Spicy (100/1)

The obvious solution to this opening handicap looks to be with the rejuvenated last time out Stratford winner Petrucci who overcame a long absence to land a well-directed gamble last time. Penalised 7lb he could deliver a similar blow but this is a quick return after a long absence and the safer option may be to support MUSICAL STARDUST each-way back over a C&D that suits her off a mark that is still workable. Magen’s Moon hasn’t shown much over hurdles so far but lurks on a dangerous mark while connections could well be expecting more than we have seen so far over hurdles from Raving Bonkers with Richard Johnson booked.
