Forecasts

The Distant Lady (2/5), Racing Spirit (15/2), Big Penny (12/1), Passing Oceans (12/1), Cottonvale (14/1), King Golan (22/1), Lamh Ar Lamh (25/1), Lotus Pond (28/1), Riddlestown (80/1), Cully Mac (100/1)

A weak contest and it probably gives THE DISTANT LADY a good chance to follow up her C&D 10L win from 11 days ago where she showed improved form and unlike most/all of these has some handicapping scope left within her. Finding dangers is hard with any solid form apart from that shown by the selection hard to find. Racing Spirit who stays this trip and has dropped considerably in the weights looks a possible threat having had a spin on the Flat of late with King Golan and Big Penny given nominal shouts for the minor placing.
