Forecasts

Kings Gift (4/1), Not So Sleepy (9/2), Speed Company (11/2), Good Boy Alfie (7/1), Glasses Up (8/1), Royal Regent (11/1), Stonific (12/1), Wooster (14/1), Dance King (14/1), Zabeel Star (16/1), Sepal (33/1)

Verdict

Without doubt the race of the day with both Not So Sleepy and King’s Gift capable of winning something like this off their current marks although they do face some progressive rivals who receive weight. A few of them though will despite that factor need to prove themselves off their current marks although GOOD BOY ALFIE isn’t one of those and he looks progressive and can defy his current rating. Speed Company ticks plenty of boxes on his return to this venue having looked to need his comeback run while the improving Glasses Up has to prove himself in this grade as he defends his unbeaten C&D record.
  1. Good Boy Alfie
  2. Speed Company
  3. Not So Sleepy
