Forecasts

Bramble Brook (6/4), Whispering Harry (3/1), Ramore Will (7/2), Sir Hubert (4/1), Finnegan's Garden (4/1), Spock (11/2)

On the face of it this does not look a race to get too heavily involved in, with holes to be picked in the form of all of them in one way or another. Bramble Brook and the unexposed Sir Hubert each tries to break their duck over fences and both could again find something too good. Finnegan's Garden won well at this track last time and although this is tougher, he is at least in form and races from his true mark today after an 8lb rise. He could go close again. Spock is also in good form, though he has never previously backed-up a win with further success and therefore it might be worth chancing WHISPERING HARRY, who relishes heavy ground, is on a good mark and has the champ up today, though his stamina would also have to be a concern.
