Forecasts

Dorydalis (8/13), It's Only A Number (4/1), Causey Arch (9/2), Internal Transfer (16/1), Maifitz's Madonna (20/1), Flowery (20/1), Southerner (33/1), Robin Can Do (66/1), Gimli's Oscar (100/1), The Nosey Man (100/1)

Verdict

DORYDALIS can make a winning hurdling debut for trainer Gordon Elliott in the opening race on the card. The point-to-point winner should be more at home over hurdles than in the bumpers he's been contesting of late and he can see off fellow hurdling newcomer Causey Arch who can boast some winning form on the Flat. It's Only A Number has shown signs of ability in his career to date and can claim third today.
  1. Dorydalis
  2. Causey Arch
  3. It's Only A Number
