Forecasts

Our Thomas (6/4), Card Game (4/1), Jokers And Rogues (9/2), Dark And Dangerous (9/2), The Character (9/1), Dakota Grey (22/1)

A small field, but not the easiest race to solve with the majority of runners either well suited by this track or likely to appreciate the drying ground. Card Game looks certain to be suited by this drop in the weights (and grade) at a track which she tends to thrive. Our Thomas is an infrequent winner, but he served notice his turn was nigh at Wetherby on his most recent start, whilst both Jokers and Rogues and Dark and Dangerous are respected despite being upped markedly in grade. However, a real flyer is taken on DAKOTA GREY. He wears the tongue tie for the first time, and he could be very well handicapped from a perch of 115, and is therefore worth chancing in the pursuit of some value.
