Forecasts

Musharrif (3/1), Classic Pursuit (4/1), Geoff Potts (5/1), Oriental Splendour (11/2), Scoundrel (8/1), Canford Bay (17/2), One Boy (10/1), Rock Hill (10/1), Twentysvnthlancers (25/1), Knockamany Bends (33/1)

Verdict

The pair at the top of the weights likely boast the strongest credentials. Musharrif went well this week at Beverley and should be in the mix, while Canford Bay has been very consistent this term but there is just a nagging doubt a sixth run in a little over a month might find him out. One Boy is heading for a winnable mark and is noted on second start after a wind op but right down near the foot of the card a chance is given to ORIENTAL SPLENDOUR. Ruth Carr's runner went well this month at Beverley and is easily forgiven a poor effort since at Hamilton, both his career wins have been over this C&D and from his lowest handicap mark to date, he could add another.
  1. Oriental Splendour
  2. Musharrif
  3. Canford Bay
