Forecasts

Hawkhurst (11/8), New List (7/4), Catch A Lucky Star (7/1), Talkofgold (8/1), Ripstick (16/1), Beyondtheflame (22/1), Queen Of Avalon (33/1), Loughview Laddie (50/1), Your Preference (125/1)

Verdict

Not a strong opener to the card and one where HAWKHURST is selected. His effort last time was probably the best piece of public form on offer coming into this and the drop back in trip plus headgear can work the oracle. New List looks next best and should improve on his Wetherby exploits now upped in trip, while the others of most interest are point-to-point winners Ripstick and Talkofgold, plus Queen Of Avalon.
  1. Hawkhurst
  2. New List
  3. Queen Of Avalon
