Forecasts

Deepsand (7/2), Benny's Secret (4/1), Chapel Stile (4/1), Suprise Vendor (6/1), Un Guet Apens (8/1), Circus Star (8/1), Baltimore Buzz (9/1), Firstymini (40/1)

Verdict

A few of these would be capable of winning this is they could be relied upon to produce their best. Chapel Stile should be watched in the market for any confidence now handicapping and under a feather racing weight, while Un Guet Apens is well in on old form, though is clearly a risky proposition. Deepsand should go close if over a nasty fall last time and the suggestion is BALTIMORE BUZZ, who comes here fresh and may be capable of striking on his first start for this yard.
  1. Baltimore Buzz
  2. Chapel Stile
  3. Deepsand
