Forecasts

Mr Orange (7/4), Penny Pot Lane (4/1), Short Work (5/1), Lexington Sky (6/1), Mishaal (7/1), Market Choice (8/1), Swanton Blue (9/1), Be Bold (10/1), Equiano Springs (12/1)

Verdict

SWANTON BLUE can make all the running to take this concluding 6f handicap. The selection made all when winning at Salisbury in May and can put a disappointing effort last time out when unable to lead behind him by registering his third career victory today. Top weight Mr Orange has been running well in the main this season and can follow up his third here last time out by claiming second today while Short Work can claim third on just his second start over this trip in 2017.
  1. Swanton Blue
