Forecasts

Woodland Park (11/8), Dunnet Head (16/5), Double Digits (5/1), Aire Spray (11/2), Oh Janey (8/1), Rula Bula (10/1), Ip Up (18/1), Admiralty House (18/1), Medieval Gold (25/1), Hidalgo De L'isle (25/1), Joshua Des Flos (50/1), Nitty Gritty (50/1), How About No (66/1), Getaway Master (80/1), Interchangeable (100/1)

Verdict

DUNNET HEAD is 2 lb lower than when winning this race in 2023 and given his record when fresh, he's taken to make a winning start for his new stable. Rula Bula mixed it in better company as a novice and looks worth another chance, while Woodland Park remains open to improvement on only his fifth career start. Of the rest, Double Digits could go well from the front, while Medieval Gold is another to note returning to better ground with Brian Hughes aboard for the first time.
