Forecasts

Stepover (6/4), Love Lane (7/4), Hope's Wishes (15/8), Admiral's Sunset (9/4)

Not an easy contest to weigh up with all of the quartet having some sort of chance although the most interesting looks to be the handicap debutante ADMIRAL'S SUNSET off what looks to be a workable mark of 110. Hope’s Wishes is well handicapped on her old form having been chasing when last seen but she can be a little quirky at times. Love Lane will appreciate this return to 2m but the ground may be a little quick and her mark remains a stiff one. Stepover is another that looks to have to cope with a stiff mark now and she was pulled up last time quite sharply at Bangor.
