Forecasts

Handy Hollow (6/4), Black Art (3/1), Prince Dundee (5/1), Silk Or Scarlet (7/1), Crixus's Escape (8/1), Diamant de L'Ouest (25/1), War Joey (28/1), Lawtop Legend (100/1), Dolly's Dot (125/1)

Verdict

The one to beat here is HANDY HOLLOW and although obvious he is nonetheless the suggestion for win purposes. Trainer Donald McCain looks to have found a good opportunity for him to break his duck here. Black Art is an interesting runner on his debut for Sue Smith, while Crixus's Escape, Prince Dundee and Silk Or Scarlet are all of interest and the market should be a good guide as to expectations for them today.
  1. Handy Hollow
  2. Crixus's Escape
