Forecasts

Doctor Thea (5/2), Volcanic (3/1), Allfredandnobell (4/1), Rock Of Leon (5/1), Stags Leap (6/1), Perseid (12/1), Wood Breizh (25/1), Exit To Freedom (100/1)

Verdict

Not too many of these can be relied upon to run their race, so we'll focus upon those in the best recent form. Rock Of Leon has only been racing in sellers, but assuming that he stays he's well placed by connections back in handicap company. Wood Breizh could be a totally different horse following wind surgery, and he was most likely bought by James Moffatt with Cartmel in mind, but this track will suit the prominent racing style of DOCTOR THEA who remains unexposed in this grade despite an 8lb rise for her Market Rasen success.
  1. Doctor Thea
  2. Rock Of Leon
  3. Allfredandnobell
