Forecasts

Hambelton (6/5), Liberation Date (5/1), Zaraahmando (6/1), Harana (13/2), Frank Pickle (15/2), No More Porter (9/1), Red Hugh O'Donnell (28/1), Snow Princess (33/1), Ocean Manifest (66/1)

Verdict

HAMBLETON caught the eye with how strongly he travelled when runner-up at York 15 days ago and is taken to go one better from a low draw. Liberation Date ran well in a stronger handicap last time and rates the chief threat if backing that up, with Snow Princess open to further progress now handicapping.
