Forecasts

Red Hanrahan (8/15), Holbrook Park (7/4), The Lion Dancer (20/1), Kingston Mimosa (66/1)

Another small field and a race that really revolves around RED HANRAHAN. If he puts in a clear round on this step up to 3m then he has a few pounds in hand on official ratings and he should be capable of a first chase success. Holbrook Park does not have a huge amount to find, but on his first chase run and with a modest record when fresh, he looks worth taking on. The Lion Dancer is hard to assess after his first effort, but you couldn't rule him out from joining battle for the runner-up berth.
