Forecasts

See You Mush (9/4), Ashwaq (7/2), Wild Flower (7/1), Firesnake (8/1), Higgy's Heartbeat (8/1), Run With Pride (8/1), Singing Sands (9/1), Entertaining Ben (10/1), Billyoakes (12/1), Noble Act (20/1), Classic Flyer (25/1), Big City Boy (25/1), Humour (25/1)

Verdict

Billyoakes seems to have found his level but a tricky draw makes him hard to fancy with other strong contenders more favourably positioned. See You Mush and Firesnake would come into that category on their C&D winning form, but the vote goes to HIGGY's HEARTBEAT. A drop to sprint distances produced an improved display last time. A break since raises a little doubt, but the form of that latest run gives him an excellent chance from this mark and the risk is worth taking.
  1. Higgy's Heartbeat
  2. See You Mush
  3. Firesnake
