Forecasts

Nordic Passage (6/4), Humbolt Current (7/2), Eternal Frame (7/1), Accessor (7/1), Mystic Flight (16/1), Blizzard (16/1), Skydiving (25/1), Party Dancer (33/1), Silver Swift (33/1), Dories Delight (33/1), Rock Boy Grey (50/1), Roodeparis (50/1), Pilot Wings (66/1), Singing Sheriff (66/1), Sheila's Empire (66/1), Isle Of Man (66/1), Scimitar (66/1), One Flew Over (100/1), Best Company (100/1), Rocus (150/1)

Verdict

A sizeable turnout, but only a couple of obvious looking contenders. Humbolt Current failed to build upon a most promising debut when upped to 1m here last month, but is worth another chance down in trip with the blinkers newly applied, whilst the Leicester winner Accessor is the standout pick of the Hannon duo. Newcomers or lightly raced horses to note for the future include Silver Swift, Roodeparis and Blizzard, but it's impossible not to be drawn to the John Gosden trained Kempton scorer NORDIC PASSAGE. He did plenty wrong there (keen) and that's most likely why the hood is introduced today, but his abundant talent shone through in spades.
  1. Nordic Passage
  2. Silver Swift
  3. Humbolt Current
