Forecasts

Chestnut Ben (7/2), Fair Frank (7/2), Mr Jim (9/2), Larkhall (5/1), Rakaia Rosa (13/2), Rhythm Of Sound (8/1), No No Cardinal (14/1), Passing Fiesta (40/1), Sussex Road (100/1)

Verdict

Fair Frank showed much improved form when winning last time out at Southwell but he did get a rather easy lead and the win did come out of the blue; he has to prove that he can follow-up that win here. Larkhall will more than likely run his usual race and flatter to deceive while Mr Jim should be watched in the market on his return to action after showing some decent enough form in the spring. The booking of James Bowen for CHESTNUT BEN is particularly eye-catching and he’s won off higher marks than this in the past a repeat of his run at Musselburgh last time will see him go close here.
  1. Chestnut Ben
  2. Fair Frank
  3. Mr Jim
