Forecasts

Captain Simon (3/1), Scented Lily (4/1), Samson's Reach (6/1), Atlantic Grey (8/1), Agincourt Reef (9/1), Red Admirable (11/1), Lincoln County (12/1), Kerry's Boy (14/1), Eau De Nile (16/1), Ayla's Emperor (20/1), Hazamar (22/1), St John's (25/1), Ring Eye (50/1)

Verdict

Scented Lilly made a bold bid on handicapped debut and is sure to go well again up another furlong. Agincourt Reef will appreciate a return to better ground. Samsons Reach won going away here over C&D two weeks ago and will be a danger to all if in a similar mood today. The selection though has to be CAPTAIN SIMON. He takes a step up in trip today for his handicap debut, the cheekpieces go on and Bridget Andrews claims a handy 3lb. His top yard do very well with this type and a market move would only increase confidence.
  1. Captain Simon
  2. Scented Lily
  3. Samson's Reach
