Forecasts

Frantic (11/8), Taygar (7/2), Emperor Caradoc (6/1), Pull The Rug (15/2), Space Bear (8/1), Sugar Baby (20/1), Tactical Formation (20/1), Kings Merchant (25/1), Vingegaard (40/1), Record Day (40/1), Harlequin Bay (125/1)

Verdict

FRANTIC was left poorly placed when runner-up to a subsequent winner on handicap bow at Leicester 3 weeks ago so is taken to go one place better. Taygar probably would have won had she kept straight over C&D 11 days ago so is the obvious threat with the veteran Sugar Baby best of the others.

  1. FRANTIC
  2. TAYGAR (IRE)
  3. SUGAR BABY
