Forecasts

Mango Chutney (7/2), Kirkham (9/2), Hijran (6/1), Tanawar (8/1), Tellovoi (17/2), Ralphy Boy (12/1), The Name's Paver (12/1), Compton Park (12/1), Donnelly's Rainbow (14/1), Dark Forest (14/1), Major Crispies (16/1), Short Work (16/1), Ticks The Boxes (25/1), Relight My Fire (33/1)

Verdict

Tanawar and Kirkham finished first and second over C&D last time and are major players again. Mango Chuntey won well at Wetherby and is considered despite his rise in the weights, but HIJRAN is the suggestion in a tight handicap. She has won twice at this track and has hinted at a return to form on her last two starts.
  1. Hijran
  2. Tanawar
  3. Kirkham
