Forecasts

Horatio Hornblower (4/1), Aunty Ann (6/1), Alberobello (6/1), Dawnieriver (13/2), Cloudy Bob (7/1), Kayla (7/1), Strongly Suggested (8/1), Follow The Swallow (8/1), Modeligo (50/1)

Verdict

CLOUDY BOB can take this opening handicap chase under the promising conditional rider Tom Greatrex. The selection ran well when finishing runner-up to today's rival Strongly Suggested on his return a month ago and on the revised terms can reverse that form. Of the remaining runners the consistent Aunty Ann has been running well of late and finished third here on penultimate outing and she can claim third stepping up in trip today.
  1. Cloudy Bob
  2. Strongly Suggested
  3. Aunty Ann
