Forecasts

The Juggler (9/4), Sharp Operator (9/2), Tilsworth Lukey (9/2), Emigrated (7/1), Outlaw Torn (7/1), Ronni Layne (8/1), Steel Helmet (10/1), Shamonix (20/1), Zarkavon (33/1)

Verdict

Just a low-grade handicap although there are a few in with a chance and it should be competitive. Emigrated has shown better form of late and comes here seeking a hat-trick but under a penalty this will prove harder. Tilsworth Lukey and Sharp Operator are closely matched on their form here although both will need to step up on what they have shown so far. THE JUGGLER needed his comeback run last time and should strip fitter now with his form here looking strong. Outlaw Torn looks a little vulnerable of this sort of mark but will appreciate a return to the AW after running in very testing conditions last time on turf.
  1. The Juggler
  2. Emigrated
  3. Tilsworth Lukey
