Forecasts

Petite Power (11/4), After Hours (4/1), By The Boardwalk (8/1), Royal Plaza (9/1), The Happy Chappy (10/1), Miami Present (10/1), Aunty Ann (10/1), Abbeygrey (10/1), Cernunnos (12/1), Kelvingrove (16/1), Caulfields Venture (33/1)

Verdict

A competitive looking handicap where we should get a decent gallop with Caulfields Venture and Miami Present in the lineup. The latter has ben well placed to score three times this term but this looks a lot more competitive. Aunty Ann and The Happy Chappy both won last time and have not been unduly penalised by the handicapper. Tom George has a good record in this but Cernunnos is not one to rely on. After Hours is on a handy mark and should come on for a run over an inadequate trip for the conditions last time. PETITE POWER caught the eye at Cheltenham last month when staying on in a competitive race after being outpaced approaching three out. This is a race that looks set to be run to suit and he makes plenty of appeal with his yard doing so well.
  1. Petite Power
  2. After Hours
  3. Aunty Ann
