Forecasts

Verdict

A seemingly wide-open finale in which Justice Lady could take some stopping in the hands of Jim Crowley if able to be played late off a strong pace. At the likely odds, however, preference is for the lightly-raced EVERGATE who can be excused a sub-standard effort when poorly drawn in the Portland at Doncaster last time. Previously, he had finished an excellent third in a hot handicap at York and a reproduction of that form could well suffice in this company. Escalating and Vimy Ridge are also interesting at bigger prices.
  1. Evergate
