Forecasts

Clondaw Castle (8/11), Peppay Le Pugh (3/1), Railroad Junkie (9/2), Holryale (14/1)

Verdict

All four runners are racing off higher marks than last time but, in the case of CLONDAW CASTLE, the damage could have been a lot worse. Admittedly his main rival last time underachieved, but a 4lb rise in the weights for beating a horse rated 12lb superior by 10L looks generous given the treatement handed out to his rivals. Pepay Le Pugh continues to confound the handicapper and his critics, whilst Railroad Junkie needs to continue his progress. Holyrale has an appealing profile but this is a tough task.
