Yellow Kangaroo (5/4), Canford Thompson (15/8), Magical Thomas (6/1), Rasasee (11/1), Jeremy's Jet (12/1), Taken By Force (14/1), Kilcaragh Boy (50/1), Overrider (66/1), Buckeye Shan (66/1)

Verdict

The booking of Gina Andrews for CANFORD THOMPSON immediately takes the eye here and it’s hoped that he’s in a better track position this time than he was when beaten at Market Rasen on his last start taking third behind one who won again next time. Looking at the market Magical Thomas would appear to be the main danger on the back of his most recent form although the dropped in grade Rasasee would not be out of this. Money for Yellow Kangaroo should also be noted despite his so far rather sub-standard hurdles displays.
  1. Canford Thompson
  2. Rasasee
  3. Magical Thomas
