Forecasts

Duhallow Lad (5/2), The Bay Birch (3/1), Major Hindrance (3/1), Silverhow (11/2), The Gipper (10/1), Casper King (11/1)

THE BAY BIRCH has registered wide margin victories at Towcester this term and her mark is now 21lb higher than when gaining the first of them. This is a stiffer task but she relishes these conditions and the weight she receives may prove telling. Duhallow Lad will be dangerous from the foot of the weights and Silverhow may fare better now meeting rivals who have been heavily penalised by the handicapper. Major Hindrance handles this track and won't mind the ground, but The Gipper and Casper King have points to prove having disappointed last time.
