Forecasts

Bandon Bridge (3/1), Thepartysover (7/2), Finish The Story (9/2), Itoldyou (11/2), Goring One (7/1), King Charlie (15/2), How's My Friend (8/1), Knight Ofthe Realm (10/1), Venetian Lad (12/1), Burgess Dream (12/1), Leg Iron (25/1)

A fairly low grade affair but competitive enough for the level although it remains to be seen if Thepartysover can maintain his level of form off what still looks a lowly mark. Venetian Lad ran a sound enough race last time out as did Itoldyou but the progressive form looks to come from Hows My Friend and BANDON BRIDGE. The latter in particular looks as though he can improve on his wining chasing debut at Warwick and may just be better than his rivals here.
