Forecasts

Weather Front (4/11), Remember The Days (11/2), Empire De Maulde (9/1), Point Break (12/1), Raecius Felix (25/1), Into The Breach (25/1), Legalized (40/1), Broomey Road (125/1)

Verdict

On paper this looks to be a weaker race than the one WEATHER FRONT took in pleasing style at Hexham (2m, good) last week, so he ought to prove very difficult to beat with the ground (an excellent cover of grass) very much riding on the fast side of good. In terms of potential dangers, one would anticipate that that the Ruth Jefferson-trained Raecius Felix will improve for the run at Carlisle, but a clear preference for the forecast is the hurdles newcomer Point Break.
