Forecasts

It's Two O Clock (11/10), Boragh Steps (11/4), Khwarizmi (4/1), Snow Patch (8/1)

Verdict

As impressive as It's Two O Clock was on debut he will surely find this task of giving 15lb to a horse he only beat by 2½L a tough one so KHWARIZMI gets the vote. While not as open to improvement on his fifth start David Marnane's charge does have a generally progressive profile himself. Boragh Steps can do better than she did on her handicap debut too after a short layoff.
  1. Khwarizmi
  2. It's Two O Clock
  3. Boragh Steps
