Forecasts

Western Wave (9/2), Rosemary Russet (9/2), Gardiners Hill (6/1), Chase End Charlie (6/1), Frankie Rapper (6/1), Late Shipment (8/1), Wishicould (8/1), Cougar Kid (12/1), Present Times (14/1), Robert's Star (16/1)

In a tightly knit handicap the bottom weight LATE SHIPMENT is a cautious suggestion. He's won over C&D three times in the past and has finally fallen to a feasible handicap mark. Top weight Wishicould will be sharper for his seasonal return and is respected, as too are Present Times and recent course winner Western Wave. Both Frankie Rapper and Chase End Charlie could also figure.
