Forecasts

Rayong (9/4), Runninwild (4/1), Lord Riddiford (11/2), Ventura Express (7/1), Jawwaal (9/1), Ginger Jam (10/1), Showalong (14/1), Ready Freddie Go (16/1), Mytilda (20/1)

Verdict

Preference is for RAYONG, who was below par at Newcastle last time but boasts a good record here (form figures at Pontefract read 12413) and was just touched off in this race last year. Paul Midgley has won 3 of the last 4 renewals and his representative Ventura Express is next on the list, while Ready Freddie Go will also be a threat if reproducing the form of his penultimate start at Ascot. Runninwild resumed winning ways at Thirsk last month, but this 5 lb higher mark could find him out.

  1. RAYONG
  2. VENTURA EXPRESS
  3. READY FREDDIE GO (IRE)
