Forecasts

Along Came Theo (5/2), Star Of Namibia (7/2), Cowslip (4/1), Northern Girl (7/1), Allfredandnobell (10/1), Dulce Panem (10/1), Pookie Pekan (12/1), Fiddler's Flight (16/1), Herecomesnelson (25/1), Cully Mac (33/1), My Brown Eyed Girl (66/1)

Verdict

Along Came Theo has turned the corner of late and was only just beaten here last time and while a 5lb rise for that effort looks a little harsh, he shouldn't be far away. Dulce Panem is a long-time maiden but he has shown he's capable of finishing in the money at this level. However, a chance is taken on NORTHERN GIRL stepping back up in trip here. She showed promise on handicap debut last time out and if she can take a step forward from that effort, she may be able to get her head in front from a workable mark.
  1. Northern Girl
  2. Along Came Theo
  3. Dulce Panem
