Forecasts

Windsor Cross (10/11), The British Lion (7/2), Hard Graft (7/2), How Bizarre (5/1), Ventura Gold (25/1)

Getting a stone from Windsor Cross, handicap debutant HOW BIZARRE is taken to win on his seasonal return, assuming he's done enough work and is ready for the task. He showed definite promise in his last race and could be on the right side of the handicapper. Windsor Cross is a big danger if the visor works again following his recent win, and his stable companin Ventura Gold is another interesting candidate and cannot be ruled out in a very trappy heat. The British Lion needs to leave behind a poor run last time out to figure.
