Forecasts

Drop Kick (9/4), Shadow Chaser (11/4), Pitwood Road (10/3), Always A Reason (6/1), Half Track (12/1), Lord De Vinci (14/1), Interchangeable (20/1), Sao Carlos (40/1)

Verdict

ALWAYS A REASON might be able to cope with a 3 lb rise for Southwell. Drop Kick did well in similar events over C&D last month and is second choice ahead of Shadow Chaser. Pitwood Road is one to monitor closely in the betting on first start for Nicky Richards.
