Forecasts

De Rasher Counter (11/4), Hit The Highway (4/1), Chris Pea Green (11/2), Tikken Away (11/2), Alpha Indi (6/1), Minella On Line (8/1), Morianour (20/1), Druid's Folly (20/1)

Verdict

Plenty of these have got questions to answer at the moment. Tikken Away is noted on handicap debut and could have something to say for himself having shaped better on second start for this yard at Taunton in November. The testing ground is a concern however. DE RASHER COUNTER has no such fears having gone close in a Clonmel bumper on heavy last March. He has shaped well in novices' races since joining Emma Lavelle and could make his mark now sent handicapping. The others all have something to prove but Hit The Highway and Chris Pea Green would have claims at their best while Morianour may have needed the run on handicap bow at Wincanton and isn't dismissed.
  1. De Rasher Counter
