Forecasts

Don Lami (2/5), Benechenko (2/1), Cintex (9/4), Judge Judy (25/1)

The ratings would suggest that DON LAMI is the best of these and it may well be that a return to the scene of his debut bumper win will allow him to show more than he did last time on his handicap debut at Hexham. Benechenko has had plenty of chances to get off the mark and just doesn’t appear able to take one but he’ll be dangerous if handed an easy lead. Cintex has so far failed to progress from his one sound piece of form but on ratings has a little to do with the other two main players.
