Forecasts

Clearance (13/8), Nice To Sea (9/2), Kirtling (6/1), Ember's Glow (8/1), Givepeaceachance (17/2), Hussar Ballad (12/1), Di's Gift (16/1), Qayed (16/1), Yasir (25/1), Lady Of York (33/1), Mac O'Polo (50/1), Scottsdale (50/1)

Verdict

A low-grade opener which unfortunately rather sets the tone for the remainder of the card. Kirtling doesn't stand masses of racing but is very competitively handicapped on winning form from 2016 (Newcastle) and rates as the major danger to the hat-trick seeking top-weight CLEARANCE. The selection is 5lb above his last winning mark and has Adam Kirby taking over in the saddle from an apprentice. Others to consider for the places include Nice To Sea and Ember's Glow.
  1. Clearance
  2. Kirtling
  3. Ember's Glow
