Forecasts

Another Batt (10/3), Fox Duty Free (7/2), Young Fire (9/2), Queen's Sargent (6/1), Broken Spear (6/1), Flying Pursuit (17/2), Alminoor (12/1), Azano (16/1)

Verdict

A tightly-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for FOX DUTY FREE who raced too keely after a break when eighth at Lingfield last time and could bounce back here off an attractive mark. Alminoor is feared most now he reverts in trip having not got home over 1m at Chelmsford, with Young Fire another to consider after his encouraging Newcastle fifth.
