Forecasts

Pistol Park (13/8), Wolf Sword (11/4), Grey Gold (4/1), Dica (9/2), Ulis De Vassy (12/1)

A couple of these horses are difficult to fancy, and Ulis De Vassy has tended to under-perform away from Southwell lately, so this looks to be a shootout between the rapidly progressive front runner Dica, and the increasingly fairly treated PISTOL PARK. The Brian Ellison trained horse seems best suited to 2m, so it's surely significant that he lines up here instead of at Newcastle on Sunday (2m4f). The experienced Brian Hughes can tuck in behind the early pace, and deliver his mount with a strong winning challenge from the back of the final fence.
