Forecasts

Dawson City (3/1), Flaming Charmer (7/2), Top Wood (11/2), Sartorial Elegance (6/1), Bears Rails (15/2), Regal Flow (8/1), Themanfrom Minella (9/1), St Dominick (20/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken on ST DOMINICK, who looked to be about to come back to some form at Exeter, travelling nicely off the pace and wasn't knocked about. Conditions here look ideal and he can score at the expense of thorough stayer Dawson City, who possibly had a valid excuse for a poor run last time, and Themanfromminella, who needs a poor run last time out forgiving but has turned in a solid enough effort previously.
  1. St Dominick

  3. Themanfrom Minella
