Forecasts

Another Day Of Sun (7/2), Eesha Beauty (11/2), Ojala (11/2), Moxy Mares (11/2), Star Of Zaam (6/1), Merkava (8/1), Gripper (10/1), Seaborough (12/1), Tommy Shelby (16/1), Laytown (25/1), Tipi (100/1), Calvin's Gal (125/1)

Verdict

Eesha Beauty posted a better effort on her second start recently at Windsor and is entitled to respect in this field while Merkava would be considered on her Yarmouth debut but was poor since on the AW. Another Day Of Sun showed up well at this track last time and retains the scope for better. Moxy Mares caught the eye on debut at Doncaster and should be noted in the betting but STAR OF ZAAM, a winner at Catterick in July over 6f, has a number of credible efforts in the book, stays this far and, having run well on firm ground, should handle the AW and stands a decent chance of extending Karl Burke's recent good form.
  1. Star Of Zaam
  2. Eesha Beauty
  3. Moxy Mares
