Nutini (11/8), Balgair (11/8), Duke Of North (3/1), Daring Guest (11/1), Narjes (12/1), Ocean Temptress (16/1), Haraz (16/1)

Verdict

Quite an interesting end to the card with a few of these looking to take a step forward from their last outings. Balgair will need a fast run race to fully effective as will Duke Of North who Isobel Francis eventually got a good tune out of last time. Ocean Temptress looks the one to provide the speed in the race and with the headgear returning it looks as though a positive performance is expected. Haraz has frustrated on more than one occasion and it’s NUTINI who gets the vote stepping up to 7f after a rather luckless run at Windsor last time.
  1. Nutini
  2. Balgair
  3. Duke Of North
