Forecasts

Verdict

Successful in a Southwell maiden hurdle back in March, NICE ONE ERIC disappointed starting out in handicaps at Ayr a month later. However, still lightly raced he looks to have been found a very winnable race now chasing for the first time and could be the answer before market clues. Looking Splendid boasts a really good record fresh and may emerge as the main danger.

  1. NICE ONE ERIC
  2. LOOKING SPLENDID
  3. HALPHA SOLEIL (FR)
