Forecasts

Franny Nisbet (7/2), Leapt (7/2), Artic Nel (9/2), Tsundoku (9/2), Aristocracy (8/1), Atalanta Bay (12/1), Master Dancer (14/1), Wintour Leap (14/1), Racing Spirit (16/1), Ivanhoe (20/1), Taste The Wine (25/1), Tarakkom (33/1), Dartmoor Girl (50/1)

Verdict

Clearly TSUNDOKU relished the step up to 2m here last time and recorded his first Flat victory in good style, in the manner of a horse who should be able to defy an 8lb rise if turning up in the same form. A recent victory over hurdles only encourages further enthusiasm for his chances and he holds every chance of doubling up if Alexandra Dunn has found the key to him in staying trips. The lightly-raced pair Leapt and Artic Nel, both of whom step up in trip here, are others to consider.
  1. Tsundoku
  2. Leapt
  3. Artic Nel
