Forecasts

Excessable (7/2), Fruit Salad (7/2), First Bombardment (13/2), Musharrif (7/1), Seamster (8/1), Kibaar (8/1), Orient Class (10/1), Pea Shooter (11/1), Singeur (14/1)

Verdict

Many of these are old rivals and while Excessable is an interesting candidate in his bid to give trainer Tim Easterby his third consecutive winner of this race, FRUIT SALAD appeals as a punter's choice to round off the card on nigh note. The gelding is well drawn, likes the course and his rider's 3lb claim will be a valuable asset in what is likely to be a tight little handicap. Orient Class and Pea Shooter are a couple of others that can play a part if they run anywhere near their best.
  1. Fruit Salad
  2. Excessable
  3. Pea Shooter
