Forecasts

Norse Light (5/2), Dartford Warbler (9/2), Must Havea Flutter (6/1), Las Tunas (8/1), Sunny Ledgend (8/1), Freddies Portrait (8/1), Miss Amelia (8/1), Chanceofa Lifetime (16/1), Midnight Merlot (16/1), Dougalstar (33/1)

Verdict

Plenty with questions to answer in this line-up. Norse Light has been running fairly consistently and took a Huntingdon prize on Boxing Day, he should go well but has failed to add to his tally in two runs since and goes up in grade today. Sunny Ledgend is back on his last winning mark but must put some poor recent efforts to one side, while Dartford Warbler is given some chance of bouncing back to form. MUST HAVEA FLUTTER shaped adequately on chase debut at Leicester last time and may find this longer trip more to his liking. If he settles, he can go well for the Skelton brothers.
  1. Must Havea Flutter
  2. Norse Light
  3. Sunny Ledgend
