Forecasts

Pikarnia (5/2), Maggie Blue (7/2), Bankhall (4/1), Louloumills (13/2), Notnow Seamus (10/1), Pulpitarian (12/1), Redkalani (14/1), Zaru (22/1)

Verdict

Pulpitarian goes well when fresh but has yet to win after a break and the same fate may await here, while Notnow Seamus merits a market check on his handicap debut with most of these thoroughly exposed. Pikarnia ought to be able to turn the tables on Bankhall from their latest race and should go close again, though the suggestion is MAGGIE BLUE, who came back to form last time and is on a handy mark.
  1. Maggie Blue
  2. Pikarnia
  3. Pulpitarian
