Forecasts

Perfect Pirate (5/2), Town Parks (11/4), Becauseshesaidso (7/2), Nansaroy (4/1), Silverhow (6/1)

Verdict

Becauseshesaidso proved a revelation when hacking up in the mud at Chepstow 10 days ago but, following a 12lb rise, may just find TOWN PARKS too tough a nut to crack. Kerry Lee's gelding bounced back well from a tumble at Bangor to win in the mud at Uttoxeter last time and, given that the well beaten third has won since, a 3lb rise may not be enough to anchor him. Perfect Pirate ran no sort of race when jumping errantly at Sandown last time but could have a big say if cheekpieces have the desired effect.
