Forecasts

Compadre (7/2), Running Wolf (5/1), Iskabeg Lane (11/2), Free Range (6/1), Kimberlite Candy (13/2), General Mahler (10/1), Justforjames (10/1), Soupy Soups (10/1), Princess Tara (10/1), The Society Man (66/1)

Verdict

Most of these are said to want better ground than is forecast and are passed over as a result. General Mahler, Running Wolf and Soupy Soups fall into that category although the latter would be of interest if the going reports are favourable as the afternoon progresses. Free Range looks interesting now switched to fences, whilst Kimberlite Candy may offer more now handicapping but he has not looked a natural over these obstacles. Iskabeg Lane beat little here last time but is going the right way and will handle conditions. JUSTFORJAMES is well handicapped based on his hurdling form and he hit form at this stage last year. He will strip fitter for his recent comeback and can defy topweight.
  1. Justforjames
  2. Iskabeg Lane
  3. Free Range
