Forecasts

Purple Harry (7/2), Orioninverness (13/2), Beau Sancy (15/2), Major Ridge (8/1), Mcginty's Dream (8/1), Under The Red Sky (9/1), Flemerina (10/1), Kalastar (11/1), Gibbstown (14/1), Nelly La Rue (20/1), Valzan (25/1), Chicago Outfit (40/1), Heritage Way (80/1), Thedfactor (100/1)

Verdict

A sizeable turnout and no shortage of interwoven form-lines shared by some largely unconvincing horses. Orioninverness is upped in trip under a 7lb penalty for his Newcastle success (beat McGinty's Dream), but should be thereabouts assuming that he stays and his far from fluent fencing holds out. Alison Clarke gets the chance to redeem herself after a very modest ride aboard Beau Sancy at Kelso last week, but whether that gelding can reproduce such a vastly improved effort is anybody's guess. Purple Harry stays well but is quirky, so we'll take a punt on the veteran Hexham specialist GIBBSTOWN. She's sharpest during the spring months and this race is weak.
  1. Gibbstown

  3. Orioninverness
