Forecasts

Sky Full Of Stars (10/3), Chestnut Ben (4/1), Clan Chief (4/1), Captain Sharpe (5/1), Duhallowcountry (15/2), Roxyfet (8/1), Oak Vintage (8/1), Bollin Line (20/1)

Verdict

Nor only is this a weak event, but not one of the eight can be relied upon to run their race. Small stakes are advised. DUHALLOWCOUNTRY will be allowed a soft lead here and that might be good enough to see him take his win tally to two. He tends to save his best for Sedgefield and can score at the expense of Captain Sharpe, who chased him home last time and may well do so again. Oak Vintage can grab third if avoiding the mistakes that have blighted his chase starts so far. 1. Duhallowcountry 2. Captain Sharpe 3. Oak Vintage
