Forecasts

Sizing Scorpion (9/4), My Renaissance (11/4), Stormbay Bomber (7/2), Dakota Grey (9/2), Jackthejourneyman (7/1), Holeinthewall Bar (9/1), Wonga Swinger (16/1), Roman Numeral (18/1)

Verdict

Stormbay Bomber has probably been aimed at this race since joining Rebecca Menzies, but unfortunately for him, his recent Sedgefield conqueror MY RENAISSANCE is also in the line up. Revised terms should bring the pair closer together, but the selection is well suited by forcing the pace and this track is an ideal venue to adopt such tactics.
  1. My Renaissance
  2. Stormbay Bomber
